You know an event has a long and strong tradition when it has its own Hall Of Fame. Such is the case with the Ellwood City Arts Festival.

Now in its 39th year, the annual Festival brings the best arts, crafts, food, and entertainment to Ewing Park for three days to celebrate the city and country (since it’s near the 4th of July weekend). Festival Chairperson Raylene Boots joined Matt Drzik on A.M. Beaver County to discuss the festival running from June 28 to June 30. Boots talked about the 2nd Edition to the Hall of Fame and its inductees, the return of the Little Miss Firecracker pageant, the headlining bands, the Juried Art Show, and the food…just to scratch the surface.
