Art Festival

We are pleased to announce that the art festival planned for July 26, 2008 is shaping up nicely. We have commitmnets from 10 artisits to display and sell their artwork. There will also be some muscians and some food available. The one event we are still trying to get some more interest in is the sidewalk art contest. We are going to hold a contest among area students who want to produce chalk sidewalk art in front of downtown businesses. We have quite a few students interested but need many more to participate. If anyone knows of a Sunday school or vacation bible school program that would like to have their kids participate please have them contact us. Also, if there are any college kids or even adults that would like to participate we would love to hear from them too. We are planning on taking donations from the businesses to have the art drawn in front of their store. Then we will direct people to walk aroud town and view the artwork and then vote on their favorites. The artwork with the most votes will be awarded half of the money donated to be given to their school or organizations art program. The other half of the donations from the business will be given to the fountain repair fund.
