Participate in ArtsFest 2025 at Wilson College

Wilson College will hold its annual ArtsFest celebration on campus the week of April 7-11, 2025. The theme for ArtsFest 2025 is “Art is … shared stories.”

The college’s ArtsFest Committee is seeking artists and arts educators (visual, performing and literary) from Chambersburg and the surrounding area to share their experiences, expertise and work at ArtsFest 2025.

Appropriate events include a presentation/reading, performance, project, workshop/class, exhibition, immersive experience or other types of arts-based events.

If interested in participating, go to www.wilson.edu/artsfest to complete the proposal form by Nov. 8.

All ideas are welcome; the ArtsFest Committee will work with anyone who has an idea but needs assistance in bringing it to fruition.

Proposals should be financially self-supported though funding may be available on a very limited case-by-case basis.

ArtsFest is a unique event for Franklin County and the surrounding communities that highlights the outstanding arts and artists within the community.

The goal of this event is to engage the Wilson campus and greater regional community in art and art-making opportunities that reach across disciplines, subjects and boundaries to foster relationships, connections and ideas for effecting positive change in the world.

For more information, contact Dillon Beede, chair of music, at dillon.beede@wilson.edu or Jen Graham, director of the M.F.A. program, at jen.graham@wilson.edu.
