Healing Through ArtFest August 8, 2026

We invite you to participate in or attend our 3rd festival, “Healing Through ArtFest,” which we are hosting in the backyard at the Spring Green General Store on Saturday, August 8th, 2026 from noon to 4 p.m.

“Healing Through ArtFest” will be held on August 8, 2026 from noon to 4 pm in the backyard of the Spring Green General Store. 

The theme is healing in community (rather than isolation), inspired by Sophie Strand’s Essay, “Make My Healing a Party Everyone is Invited to.” (link)

We are ELATED to bring this vision to life and come together in joy during trying times as a community through art, connection and healing. 

Festival highlights include live music and spoken word performance (with a professional sound system), Fire artist Roger Reynolds leads us in artful fire making, Kindled Community Sauna + plunge pool, Tarot readings from Chicago-based Emerald Acorn, 43/90 North Earth Vending, Marnie Dresser poetry pop-up, Trillium Print studio screen printing pop-up. More collaborations are in the works- stay tuned for updates on social media and this page! 

We are looking for an emcee and volunteers to help.

The theme of this festival is healing in community, instead of in isolation. Caitlin’s experience as both an artist and therapist helped birth the idea of coming together through art, community, conversation, and gathering as a form of healing, finding joy, and bonding together through the trying times we are in. This day is intended for anyone searching to reconnect- through art, more deeply within themselves, and with others. This will be the third festival of the summer at the general store, a few weeks before Beatlefest.

Let Caitlin know if you have any questions and if you are interested in participating. She is happy to help. caitlinrubymiller@gmail.com
