Louisiana Scenic Rivers Art Festival

The Folsom Scenic Rivers Art Festival returns for its second year to the Far Horizons Collective at Giddy Up Folsom. The subject matter of all of the artworks are the 3,000 miles of water protected by the Louisiana Wild and Scenic Rivers Act. Those who attend the opening reception on May 1 from 4 pm–7 pm will be invited to vote anonymously for the People's Choice Awards, as well as enjoy discovering local art from Louisiana craftsmen and women—with everything from paintings, drawings, and photography to ceramics, fine jewelry, and handmade clothing. Live music and guest speakers will also guide the day. Proceeds support art education for area school children, providing hands-on art activities and children's entertainment. farhorizonsart.com.
