For Art

More than 120 artists from across the state and beyond participate in the Festival of Arts. In addition, an Emerging Artist will have the opportunity to get a head start on a career in the arts by exhibiting and selling their artwork to a Festival audience of more than 20,000 attendees.

For Education

Our well attended Family Art tent provides art activities for children and their families designed to bring out the child in all of us. The Festival of Arts Scholarship Program annually provides scholarships to local high school seniors who are pursuing higher education in an art related field. Our Scholarship Program is funded by the Scholarship Silent Auction. At the Scholarship Silent Auction, attendees bid on and purchase works of art donated by Festival artists. The Young Collector Market provides an opportunity for youth, age 12 and under, to appreciate and purchase art donated by Festival artists just for them.
