Kawartha Arts Festival
27 Veterans Way K0M1N0 Fenelon Falls, ON, Canada

Thank you to everyone who supported us in the Readers' Choice Awards - and we are thrilled to have received Platinum designation. And congratulations to Fenelon Falls Santa Day for achieving Diamond status - that makes them #1! https://www.mykawartha.com//e/subcategories/local-festival

It is with great sadness that we share with you the passing of Morris Young. Morris was a valued member of the KAF Board - his positivity, his generosity of spirit and his dedication to the Festival were a big part of the success of the event. His quiet humour and unstoppable good nature will be missed - we are diminished.

To all our KAF artists: An email went out to the most recent email address we have on file for each of you, regarding KAF 2021. If you did not receive it, please PM us here with your current email address and we will make sure you get the email. Your input is vital as we look towards Labour Day.

Don McLean wrote this song about Vincent van Gogh, who never sold a painting while he lived. His brother supported him, even after Vincent lost his mind. Whoeve...r has made this video deserves gratitude for selecting Vincent's paintings that perfectly match Don Maclean's lyrics that pay tribute to Vincent's genius. See more

Colborne Street Gallery is a beautiful space where you can immerse yourself in beautiful art in the heart of Fenelon Falls. #kawarthaartsfestival #ColborneStGallery #supportlocalartists

We are already receiving enquiries from our artists - everyone wants to know if KAW 2021 is a go. Well, at this point nobody knows for sure what the next few months will bring in terms of COVID-19 restrictions, but we will be sure to keep everyone informed as we move along. Check our website - kawarthaartsfestival.com - follow us right here on Facebook. In the meantime, please stay safe, and be well. #kaf2021 #kawarthaartsfestival #supportlocalartists #fenelonfalls #kawarthalakes

You can follow in the footsteps of Canada's Group of Seven, visiting the places which inspired their paintings. Maybe it's time for you to paint your own inspiration...

Many thanks to our friends at the Victoria County Studio Tour for thinking of us on this Labour Day Weekend. Normally we would be at the Fenelon Fairgrounds, with the gates ready to open in 5 minutes. Here's to a successful Studio Tour, and to 2021 at the Kawartha Arts Festival. Cheers!
