The Betty Foy Sanders Department of Art hosted its 29th Annual ArtsFest this spring, drawing hundreds of young art enthusiasts and their parents for a day of fun and learning on Sweetheart Circle. Generations of families hold fond memories of an event that was a part of their childhood, and is now part of their own children\u2019s experience,\u201d said Patricia Carter, chair of the Department. <\/p>\n

\u201cOur goal is to provide such a quality and quantity of arts events that attendees end their day at the festival with pure exhaustion and unlimited inspiration from the exhilarating fun they had.\u201d Children explored a variety of art activities at more than 20 different \u201cStudio Stops\u201d where they created giant bubbles, printed Gyotaku fish, made paper, sculpted with clay, painted a \u201cmasterpiece,\u201d crafted jewelry or posed in a photo booth. Artists from around the region displayed their art. <\/p>\n

In addition to live musical performances, artists demonstrated their talents in jewelry, folk art, painting, ceramics, sculpture and photography.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
