Come join us next year to celebrate the Arts in Hopkinsville! In an effort to focus on the arts community in Hopkinsville, the Hopkinsville Art Guild, in collaboration with the City of Hopkinsville, area schools and the Public Library will host the fifth Derby Arts Festival in May 2012. Plan ahead for a day of fun!

We all know that a thriving arts community is essential to a community where people enjoy living and rearing their family. There will be a “Creation Station” for children to experience several free art activities. They can develop skills in water coloring, origami, learn about the “old master” painters and create chalk art projects. And there are free performances.
