In an age of math and science as the titans of educational focus, we applaud the artists in our community who bring us wide ranging art from paintings to symphonies. Each year, we invite various local artists and groups to participate at the Festival with exhibits or hands on activities.  We celebrate the artistic process as described in the book Art and Fear by David Bayles and Ted Orland.

"To all viewers but yourself, what matters is the product: the finished artwork. To you, and you alone, what matters is the process."
