Corbett Education Foundation
COLUMBIA GORGE ART FESTIVAL
MARK YOUR CALENDAR for the 14th Annual Art Festival

May 19-20, 2012 at the Corbett Grade School 10am to 5pm

Located in and around the Corbett School District Campus

The Corbett Education Foundation will host its 14th annual Columbia Gorge Art Festival the third weekend in May. We invite everyone to stop by to take in local and regional art, food, and entertainment.  Artists and craftspeople will be on hand offering all types of items from paintings and sculptures to soaps and jewelry - and so much more.

Because CEF was awarded a Project Grant from the Regional Arts & Culture Council this year’s festival will be expanded to include local and regional musicians, actors and performers throughout the weekend too!  Other exciting additions will be more food items, student art and performance, a family-friendly craft making area, games AND more!

We still have room for a few more artists and craftspeople, so give us a call or email if you are interested in being part of our fine event. Please locate the application on our website at www.corbetteducationfoundation.org (http://www.corbetteducationfoundation.org)

This year we are mixing things up with a bit of local and regional entertainment and we will be seeking local and regional musicians and performers of all kinds to apply for stage time at this event until 2/15/12. Find out more information by visiting our website www.corbetteducationfoundation.org (http://www.corbetteducationfoundation.org) and clicking on the arts festival tab.

This yearly festival provides all the operating funds each year thereby allowing Corbett Education Foundation to pass along 100% of all scholarship donations received from community individuals, families, and businesses directly to the scholarship recipients. Stop by our information booth to win raffle prizes and to learn more about this important organization.

Each year, we attract folks from all around the Portland Metro area who venture out to Corbett to see what our talented artists have to offer. If you are someone who loves art, we have watercolor and oil paintings, glass art, wood sculpture, ceramic and fabric art, jewelry, and so much more.
Stop by for our 14th festival and join the multitudes of people who grace our town during this creative event in support of the artisans and volunteers, all while supporting continued education of Corbett students.

This event is funding in part with grant funds from The Regional Arts & Culture Council. www.racc.org (http://www.racc.org)
