City Of Henderson Continues Mother’s Day Weekend Tradition With Artfest Of Henderson

The City of Henderson will present the 13th annual ArtFest of Henderson, May 8-9 from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m., daily, at the Henderson Events Plaza, 200 S. Water Street, in the Water Street District. Admission is FREE.

The event will feature over 100 select artisan and crafter booths, displaying and selling a variety of artwork including paintings, ceramics, jewelry and photography. Families will also enjoy live entertainment, food vendors and a Kids’ Gallery, an interactive area where children can participate in several arts and crafts activities.

Additionally, a new section, entitled Made in Nevada, has been added to this year’s street fair. Made in Nevada supports the local arts community, allowing resident artists the opportunity to showcase their talents. These particular artist booths will be located on Water Street, between the Henderson Events Plaza and the James I. Gibson Library.

Suzanne Quincey is this year’s featured artist. She will be presenting her original designs of hand-crafted wind chimes, sun catchers and sculptures. Her unique collection is created out of recycled glassware and pottery.

The Rotary Club of Green Valley returns for a second year with Piazza Colori, a version of an Italian street painting festival. Local artists will draw colorful and intricate masterpieces using chalk as their paintbrush and the Henderson Events Plaza as their canvas. Prizes will be awarded for best amateur, professional and people’s choice categories. Proceeds from Piazza Colori will benefit a number of Henderson charities associated with the Rotary Club of Green Valley.
