Our organization, now 41 years strong,
continues to define the artistic identity of our community while
providing cultural delights to visitors and residents alike. Our
year-round schedule of events provides tens of thousands of people
the opportunity to commune with art and nature.
The Council's original event, the annual Lewiston
Outdoor Fine Arts Festival (now in its 42nd year), will
be held August 9 & 10 this year, and has become the premier show in
Niagara County. Festival attendance is estimated at 30,000 with
over 170 participating artists from the U.S. and Canada.
Our objective is to bring creative talent and public
appreciation together to create an artistic soul for the beautiful
and historic Village of Lewiston, New York. Our proximity to Canada
encourages the bi-national interchange of artists and performers and
contributes to the abundant cultural richness of the Niagara region.
The
support of the community is vital to our success and so we thank the
Town of Lewiston,
Village of Lewiston,
and our elected representatives who have provided generous financial
support in recognition of our vital role to the quality of life
here.
