The Austin ArtWorks Festival is a major investment in the culture of Austin, MN. A collaboration of community leaders are working on transforming the Historic Downtown Power Plant into a unique destination. This two day event will be an opportunity for the public to envision a revitalized use of this building. We are featuring visual, performing, media, and literary artists with ties to the Austin community. Join us for a true celebration of the arts because art works!
The application deadline to participate in the 2013 ArtWorks Festival has been extended to Friday, May 24th.
