I will be one of 63 participating artists in this year's Rideau Valley Art Festival. The festival is located in the beautiful village of Westport on Upper Rideau Lake in the heart of the historic Rideau Valley. Proceeds from the exhibition fund many local and district community organizations.

The Rideau Valley Art Festival is held in the Westport Community Centre situated on Highway 42 in Westport (at the corner of Spring and Concession Streets). It is 53 km north of Kingston and 30 km southwest of Perth.

Admission: $5.00 Adults, Seniors & Students $4.00, Children under 12 are free.

One of the most picturesque villages in all of Canada, Westport is surrounded by lakes and bordered on the north by Foley Mountain Conservation Area - a truly breathtaking destination. Great restaurants, docking facilities, parking, an airfield and exceptional picnic grounds are just minutes from the Festival.

Hope to see you there!
