Journey to the Village of Scarsdale on May 17-18, 2014 for the return of the Westchester Festival of the Arts, once again graciously hosted by the Scarsdale Chamber of Commerce and now in its fifth year.  Watch the downtown streets of the Village transform into an exquisite outdoor gallery of art brought to Scarsdale by artisans journeying to the Village from around the country and overseas.  Select from unique, handmade and one-of-a-kind creations by sculptors, painters, jewelers, glass artists, photographers, digital artists, fiber and ceramic artists along with masterpieces in mixed-media, metal, and wood. Become an art collector or add to your existing art collection!  Remember: art not only enriches your home and workplace – most importantly, it enriches your life!

 

Enjoy the opportunity to meet and talk with the artisans.  Learn how they were trained and their skills honed.  Knowing how your specific pieces were created adds inestimable value to your lifelong appreciation of the art. Know that many of these award-winning and acclaimed artists are represented in major museums and prestigious private collections throughout the world.
