As an independent arts non-profit, the Arts Festival relies on financial support from its generous community to sustain the meaningful arts programming it offers year after year. Since 1974, the Festival has operated on a donation model to carry on the legacy of providing arts and entertainment that is accessible to all. It is through donations that the Festival is able to continue this beloved community tradition.
Please consider a special gift of
$50 in honor of our 50th Anniversary.
We are enormously grateful for the continued support from community members who make the magic of the Arts Festival possible for all.
Thank you for celebrating with us and supporting our mission of accessibility!
