Art unifies, beautifies and excites the senses. Events attract people, revenue and sponsors. "Artful" Events energize townships, local businesses and community leaders. An art and culture event provides a perfect venue for all residents of the community to join together in the exciting environment of artists and craftsman. The Wellington Art Festival is currently in its eigth year, the most recent success in 2008. Winter of 2002 was the inaugural year of the Wellington Art Festival. The 2005 festival was featured in Sunshine Artist Magazine.
