  WELCOME
to MPAartfest


On October 5th, 2008 MPAartfest will transform McLean Central Park into a lively landscape of mini art galleries showcasing and offering for sale the work of a diverse group of 40 juried artists.

MPAartfest includes activities to captivate art-lovers of all ages. Stroll through the Children’s ArtWalk, sponsored by McLean Citizens Foundation, to experience the work of young artists from McLean area schools. Budding artists may create their own works of art at the Children’s Art Tent, coordinated by New Dominion Women's Club.

Adults can learn about contemporary art concepts at the ArtSmart Tent. Talented area Seniors will showcase their artistic talent in the New Dimensions exhibit.

The Gazebo Stage will feature a variety of live performances throughout the day.

Visitors can treat themselves to a delicious selection of refreshments from local restaurants, including:

Greenberry's Coffee and Tea Co.
Lebanese Taverna
Moorenko’s Ice Cream Café
Morton's Steakhouse
Old Fashioned Kettle Korn Man
Vinson Hall
