ArtsFest is a week-long event that includes presentations/readings, performances, projects, workshops/classes, exhibitions, immersive experiences, ������Ƶ “make and take ������Ƶ ” or arts and craft type experiences, and other type of arts-based events. ������Ƶ students and faculty who have been engaging in any arts-based research, experiences, or projects/assignments as a part of their coursework will be sharing this type of work, as well. ������Ƶ   

������Ƶ “We are excited to continue building on the growing success and interest in ������Ƶ ������Ƶ ’s ArtsFest. This year our focus is on shared stories and our campus and Chambersburg arts community has stepped forward with some amazing stories to share. In addition to our campus and local talent, we are excited to also present four nationally recognized invited artists as part of this year ������Ƶ ’s events. Thanks to the generous support of the Palmer Grant, we are able to host Sir Dominique Jordan for a poetry reading, visual artist Sue Coe, singer and composer Melanie DeMore, and choreographer Camille Weanquoi, ������Ƶ ” said Dillon Beede, director of choral activities and chair of music.
