Ohio Arts Council’s 2008 Ohio Arts Festivals and Competitions Directory Available
by Jaclyn Reynolds

The Ohio Arts Council’s 2008 Ohio Arts Festivals and Competitions Directory is available. The directory contains detailed information about arts and crafts festivals and competitions throughout 2008, including dates, activities, number of spaces available for artists to display work, fees and contact information. It is organized by date and location and includes alphabetical indexes of festivals by name, city, region and sponsor. The directory is a useful guide for artists interested in places to display and sell their work—from traditional crafts to arts on the cutting edge—and for anyone seeking to experience the arts in Ohio.

“The Ohio Arts Festivals and Competitions Directory is a wonderful resource for the citizens of Ohio that provides comprehensive information about arts activities in our communities throughout the year,” said Julie Henahan, executive director, Ohio Arts Council. “We encourage people to order early as it is one of the OAC’s most popular publications.”

To receive a copy of the Ohio Arts Festivals and Competitions Directory call 1-800-BUCKEYE, Ohio’s travel information hotline, and ask to speak to a travel counselor from the automated menu or send a self-addressed #10 envelope with $.92 in postage to the Ohio Arts Council, 727 E. Main Street, Columbus, OH 43205-1796. An online version is available on the Council’s Web site at www.oac.state.oh.us/search/OACFestival/SearchFestivals.asp.

The directory is published by the Ohio Arts Council and distributed in partnership with the Ohio Arts and Crafts Guild and Ohio Designer Craftsmen, Ohio Division of Travel and Tourism, Ohio Department of Transportation, Chambers of Commerce, Convention and Visitors Bureaus and AAA offices around the state. The listings are compiled by Lorz Communications of Columbus.

The Ohio Arts Council is a state agency that funds and supports quality arts experiences to strengthen Ohio communities culturally, educationally and economically.
