Looking for something fun to do to cure your wintertime blues? Interested in sharing your passion for the arts by displaying your work? Then pick up your copy of the Ohio Arts Council's 2012 Ohio Arts Festivals & Competitions Directory! Now available, the directory is an excellent resource for people who are looking to exhibit their work in festivals throughout Ohio or for people who simply want to take part in the arts community.
The directory contains detailed information about arts and crafts festivals and competitions throughout 2012, including dates, activities, number of spaces available for artists to display their work, fees and contact information. It is organized by date and location and includes alphabetical indexes of festivals by name, city, region and sponsor.
"Every year, we publish the Ohio Arts Festivals & Competitions Directory as a resource for Ohioans to discover new ways to celebrate, explore and share the arts across Ohio," said Julie S. Henahan, executive director of the Ohio Arts Council. "The 2012 Ohio Arts Festivals & Competitions Directory is small enough to keep in your glovebox, yet it's packed with details about the unique arts festivals and competitions our state has to offer."
