This year’s Arts Festival was held on May 19th at the Canton Campus. The weather cooperated, there
was live music in the Open Juried Show Tent, the steamroller printmaking demonstration and the
gourmet food trucks were a big hit. The YMCA provided a giant inflatable obstacle course for the kids,
and youngsters had a great time in the Kid’s Activity Tent.
Visitors came from near and far to shop at twenty five crafters and artisan’s tables, take a chance on
great raffle items, and of course, enjoy the art exhibits displayed throughout the building.
