Keuka Arts Festival

---

Dear Artists, Vendors and Friends
of the Keuka Arts Festival,

In a normal year, we would be deep in the planning stages for this year’s Festival, but this is definitely not a normal year. After having to cancel the 2020 Festival due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are still uncertain as to the fate of this year’s Keuka Arts Festival.

What we can tell you is that we have been in contact with the Village of Penn Yan and have asked to postpone until later in the summer instead of our normal June dates. Our hope is that by late summer there will be great improvement in the infection rate and a better opportunity to go ahead with the Festival. However, the Village is not ready to give their permission just yet – understandably – so we are still playing the waiting game, as is the rest of the world.

What we can also tell you is that no matter what, we plan on holding the Keuka Arts Festival again. It is not going to go away, and we hope to come back bigger and better than ever.

Those artists who were juried in for the 2020 Festival – we promised that your jury fee will carry over to 2021 and will carry over to 2022 if necessary, but we fervently hope that will not be necessary.

We will be in contact with you as news becomes available. Do check our website, www.keukaartsfestival.com for updates as well. In the meantime, if you have any concerns or questions, please feel free to contact the Arts Center at any time. They can be reached at 315-536-8226 or at artscenteryates@gmail.com.
