Youth Art Exhibit

Due to the renovations this year at Everal Barn, we unfortunately have to cancel the youth art exhibit for 2026! We will be back in 2027, and we will reach out at that time.

The Everal Barn is in need of dire renovations to preserve its integrity and future weathering. The remainder of the 2026 Westerville Music & Arts Festival will continue as usual. The Festival Committee has exhausted the pros and cons of holding the exhibit in a tent on the festival grounds as well as at an off-site location, and for many reasons, feel that this is not the right thing to do to give justice to the artwork and to the artists this year.

We encourage you to hold onto any artwork that you would have submitted this year and submit it in 2027. We are anxious to see the magnificent pieces! We hope you and your family will continue to visit and support the 2026 Westerville Music & Arts Festival July 11 and 12 at Heritage Park.
