Mount Vernon and Lisbon are quickly becoming known for their wonderful art festivals and gatherings.  Chalk the Walk, a Madonari festival, is usually held in the spring while the Lincoln Highway Arts Festival takes place in the fall.  Between those times, artists and entertainers continue to create and explore their crafts for the enjoyment of all.

In addition to the art festivals, Mount Vernon and Lisbon offer performance art venues, community theater productions and Cornell College's McWethy Hall, home to a rotating display of work by distinguished artists.  There are plenty of things to do in this area, so please enjoy!
