It is with deep regret that we inform you that the 2008 International Festival of Arts and Culture scheduled for June 14, has been cancelled due to economic conditions. Two of our major sponsors are no longer in business, a few other major sponsors could not maintain support of the festival at the previous level, and we were unable to secure enough new money to fund the event.


The City of Anderson plans to hold a scaled-down cultural festival in September. For more information about that event, contact:
