John Hutchinson - The annual Festival of Arts is one of the crown jewels in the Music & Arts Ministry. Having been founded in 2008 to feature Professional and Student visual artists in gallery settings and performance artists in concert settings. Since its inception, the Festival has grown to include more than 700 visual artists annually. I thought that we could have John speak on the festival and the importance of art in the community.
