Approximately 150 youngsters from western Palm Beach County will take part in the 28th Annual A4AFL-PBC West Festival "Art on the Go" on February 13, 2025, at the Dolly Hand Cultural Arts Center at Palm Beach State College Glades Campus in Belle Glade. The festival is sponsored by Arts4All Florida-Palm Beach County.

The A4AFL-PBC West Festival provides children with disabilities an opportunity to showcase their achievements in the arts and to be exposed to new visual and performing arts experiences. Children from schools in Belle Glade, Canal Point and South Bay will perform, produce and experience thematic art in several forms through hands-on instruction from local artists.

"Art on the Go" experiences include visual and performing arts activities headed by artists from throughout South Florida. Artists Tracy Rosof-Petersen and Steve Brouse will direct the young students in transportation-themed visual arts projects including clay sculpture, mixed media, collage, painting, and a sensory table. Artists Kat Kenny, Nicole Baglino, Siobhan McManus, Betty Varnell and Buckley Griffis will lead the students through interactive performing arts activities including music, drama, dance and storytelling.

West Festival is sponsored by businesses and individuals from western Palm Beach County.
