Interaction is the theme for this two day arts festival with participating artists both creating and displaying their work. More than 15 regional art organizations are coming together for this festival. Join 40 resident artists as a guest artist! The event will feature opportunities for visitors to create art, enjoy watching artists' demonstrations and buy directly from the artists.
Building on the successful 2014 Festival, the 2015 Arts Alive will expand to a two day event free of charge to the public. The community will have access to over 100 artists in an energetic festival complete with live entertainment, quality concessions and hands-on experiences. Four bands will provide live entertainment throughout the week-end. Food trucks and a wine & beer garden, a Chalk Paint Contest and an interactive kid's zone will create a festival atmosphere to attract visitors.

What artists said about last year's festival:
- "the variety of activities and placement of venues. People seemed to stay to eat and listen to music and roam the booths. A relaxing yet exciting program"
- "Very well organized and smoothly run."
- "that it was very easy to setup and take down the work. It was very well organized and everyone had a good attitude."
