Beneficiary


Each year, the festival committee reviews applications from area organizations, and selects a beneficiary for the event. The selected organization(s) then provide volunteers and other support to the committee to conduct the event. Substantially all of the net proceeds are then given to the beneficiary organization.

This year marks the tenth aniversary of the Festival. To commemorate this milestone, the proceeds of this year's Festival will be divided among the beneficiaries of the first nine years and the Wright Museum.
