About

The Heart of Virginia Festival began as an art show with residents of the area displaying unique paintings, sculptures, and other pieces of art. The Festival has grown to include musical acts, handmade crafts, and community projects. Today the Heart of Virginia Festival is a true celebration of local culture, arts, and crafts, on display, surrounded by community support.
