The Hernando County Fine Arts Council dreamed of a cultural arts center in Hernando County that could attract national acts, as well as offer artists space for a gallery, exhibitions, classrooms, workspace for artists, rehearsal space, and storage. Maybe even a coffee shop. Mindful of past efforts that started strong, but collapsed before the dream became reality, they conducted a market assessment with the DLR Group, experts in the field.

The Hernando County Fine Arts Council, along with premier sponsor Florida’s Adventure Coast, wishes to congratulate the judges’ winners from the 36th Annual Art in the Park held March 14 &15, 2020, at Tom Varn Park in Brooksville, FL.

The Southeast Tourism Society is proud to announce the Hernando County Fine Arts Council’s 36th Annual Art in the Park has been named to its top 20 Festival and Events list for the month of March 2020. Jan Knowles, co-chair of Art in the Park noted, “The Arts Council is thrilled that our festival has been named in the top 20 for the third year in a row!”
