Fund for the Arts presents the third annual Celebration of the Arts on April 11 and will feature local performing and engagement artists, music, dancing, onstage and live artmaking and engagement activities for guests offstage—all from local artists and arts organizations. The event will take place at Christy’s Garden at Old Forester’s Paristown Hall.
Every year has been a great acknowledgement to the wealth of talent in the community and we look forward to another fantastic year.
“Our community has such a rich tapestry of artists; bringing local performers and other artists to Christy’s Garden to enrich the Art Market experience was a no brainer,” said Brett Shepherd, Interim President and CEO of Fund for the Arts. “We’re so grateful to the artists, our partners at Paristown, and our sponsors for their enthusiasm and support for Celebration of the Arts.”
