We are back with a full show and delighted to have you join us in person May 9 - 11, 2025 on Mother’s Day weekend for the 38th Pelham Art Festival In-Person at the Meridian Community Centre in Fonthill, Ontario. A concurrent Online festival will be held May 1 - 31, 2025. 

On Opening Night, Friday May 9, 2024, from 7-10pm, over 80 juried artists and juried youth artists will show their work and offer a wide range of beautiful original fine art for you to purchase. The Arena will be transformed into an art gallery for you to wander through, while enjoying live music. Enjoy included hors d’oeuvres and purchase a glass of wine while shopping and meet people in your community while enjoying a special ambience.

On Saturday, May 10 from 10-5pm and Sunday, May 11, from 10am-4:30 pm, artists continue to show and sell their work and will be ready to interact with you. Families enjoy an art-related Scavenger Hunt with their children, introducing them to art.
