The Carroll County Arts Council has partnered with the City of Westminster for more than two decades to present this annual cultural festival. The event is rich in tradition and attracts a large audience. We encourage established artists as well as groups, clubs and emerging artists to participate. The day will include a children’s craft tent, live music on stage, and a food court.
The Registration deadline is May 13, 2017. Late registrations (if accepted) are subject to a $20 late fee. Please list the names of each participating artist during the checkout process. Each participating artist must have a MD State Tax ID number.
