Welcome To The 48th Annual<br />
<strong>Space</strong> <strong>Coast</strong><br />
<strong>Art</strong> <strong>Festival</strong><br />
Cocoa Beach, FL • <strong>Thank</strong>sgiving Weekend<br />
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I welcome you to the 48th annual <strong>Space</strong><br />
<strong>Coast</strong> <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Festival</strong>. This year we are excited to present 250 exceptional artists.<br />
There’s something for everyone here – from extraordinary painters to talented woodworkers<br />
and jewelers. We also continue to offer artistic opportunities for young budding<br />
artists at our <strong>You</strong>ng-At-<strong>Art</strong> booth where children can participate in free hands-on arts and<br />
crafts projects and with our Saturday Margaret Heins Student <strong>Art</strong> Show showcasing the value of<br />
quality art education in our Brevard County schools.<br />
A <strong>Very</strong> <strong>Special</strong> <strong>Thank</strong> <strong>You</strong>...<br />
The Board of Directors would like to thank the gracious<br />
Cocoa Beach residents that have hosted our Judges<br />
Receptions. This tradition continues to enhance our <strong>Art</strong><br />
<strong>Festival</strong> as it has grown into one of the finest in the state<br />
of Florida. In the past, these supporters of the festival<br />
have opened their homes to our festival patrons, the winner<br />
of the poster competition and our judges. <strong>Thank</strong> you<br />
for helping our community support the arts and artists<br />
that give up their <strong>Thank</strong>sgiving weekend to enrich our<br />
lives.<br />
Downtown Cocoa Beach, FL<br />
<strong>Thank</strong> you to all <strong>Festival</strong> sponsors and community partners as well as<br />
the Brevard County Commission, the Brevard Cultural Alliance and the<br />
City of Cocoa Beach. We also owe a special thanks to the citizens and<br />
businesses of Cocoa Beach for allowing us to close off the streets and<br />
fill them with artists and participants. Lastly, thank you visitors, both local<br />
and from out-of-town, who appreciate and encourage the arts in our<br />
community. In a time of tightening budgets, it is so important that we<br />
keep the arts alive. <strong>You</strong>r support of the arts and the artists exhibiting in<br />
our festival is very appreciated.<br />
