The Collingwood Arts Center (CAC) is planning its second food truck festival for 2-7 p.m. Sept. 20.
Participating vendors will include Aunt Carla’s Boosh, Chris’ Italian Ice, Bella Dolcetti Bakery, Black Kettle Barbeque, Grumpy’s on the Go, Slammin’ Sammies, The Displaced Chef, On The Move, Toledo Hot Dog, RedRoc Taco Truck and Wanderlust, said CAC Interim Executive Director Sarah Kurfis.
The event will also feature performances from CAC’s Children’s Theater Workshop and other local artists.
Cost is a suggested $2 donation to CAC. Proceeds from beverage sales also go to CAC. Street parking is available near CAC, 2413 Collingwood Blvd., or lot parking at Compass next door. Some seating will be available, but organizers suggest bringing chairs or blankets.
The inaugural CAC food truck festival, held in July, featured eight food trucks and drew about 1,000 people.
“People thought we timed it with the food truck/mayor controversy, but really we’d been trying to pull that together for a while,” Kurfis said.
Chris Bores of Pursuit of the Paranormal will offer free ghost tours during the festival at 2:30 p.m., 3:30 p.m., 4:30 p.m., 5:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Free historical tours will be offered at 3 p.m., 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. A T-Town Tassels burlesque show will take place at 9 p.m. Cost is $15 in advance or $20 at the door.
“Come hang out, drink, eat awesome food, support local businesses, support Collingwood Arts Center — and then stay for the burlesque show,” Kurfis said.
