ArtFest 2009
October 23, 2009
ArtFest Takes a Hiatus. The House’s 2009 calendar of events will be missing one of its signature events in 2009 – ArtFest. Since the inception of ArtFest, the event has raised in excess of $290,000 for the House. However, after careful review and discussion, the House has decided not to move forward with ArtFest for 2009. This has been a difficult decision for the House and many factors have been considered in this decision – the down turn in the current economy and the recent results of art shows. The House will again review the status of ArtFest for 2010 and look into possibly restructuring the event to a more casual atmosphere.
We would like to extend our deep appreciation to the artists, sponsors and patrons of ArtFest for their many years of support.
