The Brick House is sponsoring its fourth annual Great Falls Art Fest on Saturday and Sunday, May 17 and 18, 2008 on the beautiful grounds of the Great Falls Discovery Center on Avenue A, in Turners Falls, MA (just off Route 2 and over the Gill-Montague Bridge). Along with a myriad of artists, the Great Falls Art Fest also offers two full days of live local music, fun children’s activities, and delicious local cuisine. Proceeds from this event will benefit the community-based programs at The Brick House.

The Great Falls Art Fest is a juried festival, which ensures a good balance and wide variety of arts and crafts. The jurying process, which begins February 25th, will continue with sessions on March 10th, March 24th, April 14th, and May 5th. In addition to the lovely level grounds at the Great Falls Discovery Center , this year’s fest is offering artists the opportunity to set up their booths under a large tent or their own booth-size tents.

Artists who are interested in participating should call Karen Stinchfield at The Brick House (413-863-9576), or e-mail kstinchfield@thebrickhouseinc.org.
