The Cedar City Fall Arts Festival, which takes place
every year in conjunction with the opening of the
fall season of the Utah Shakespearean Festival (www.bard.org),
features local and regional artists in all types of visual art --painting,
sculpture, photography, jewelry-making, and others. Musical performances
and food booths round out the festivities. Application forms are available at the Fall Arts page. In 2008 the Fall Arts Festival will take place on September 26-27.
In 2006 the Arts Council
reinvented its children's art festival, from a one
day event to a week-long art camp and workshop.
Last year the art camp created artist trading cards.
If you are interested or want more information, contact Jennifer at

CCAC also stages three social
events per year. These are opportunities for artists
to meet one another, enjoy food and drink, hear music
and poetry, view paintings and multi-media works, and
learn more about the arts council's activities. The events
are a fun and casual way to attract new people and to
celebrate local artists.
