The Celebrate the Arts Festival is only a week away. The festival brings artists, weavers and performers from all over the region to celebrate four days of art, music and performances.
According to Erin Butler, executive director of the WYO Theater, Sheridan Public Arts committee chair Kim Love resurrected Celebrate the Arts.
According to Sheridan Travel & Tourism, the arts economy generates as much as $20 million in local economic impact each year, while artists and art exports serve as tremendous ambassadors and advertisements, respectively, for the community.
During an appearance on Sheridan Media’s Public Pulse, Butler spoke about the festival.
The Celebrate the Arts Festival begins on Sept. 10 with ENTWINED: Jennifer Reifsneider + Martha Tuttle Exhibition featured at the Ucross Art Gallery, free and open to the public Monday through Friday, opening at 10:00am and “Current Relics” by artist Rod Dugal at The Edward A. Whitney Gallery. An Artist Talk & Reception with Rod Dugal will begin at 4 p.m. in The Whitney Center for the Arts at Sheridan College.
