When: Wellington Anniversary Weekend
January 23 - January 25, 2010

The 7th Greytown Arts Festival Weekend has drawn to a successful close. In spite of the wet day on Saturday hundreds of Festival goers enjoyed the Made in Greytown exhibition and braved the weather to view the homes and artists work on the Art and Garden Tour. The McMaster Street music event moved into the Greytown Town Hall and packed crowds enjoyed a great afternoon of music. A sell out crowed was wowed by the Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra with everyone enjoying the night.

On Sunday the sun smiled on Greytown and visitors enjoyed the outdoor music at McMaster Street. The Art & Garden Tour saw a non stop procession through the fabulous list of the nine homes of the tour. There was fierce competition at the Lego Build and a good time was had by all. An appreciative audience enjoyed the chamber music programme by the Amazon Trio at St. Luke's church and Cafe Trends had a full house and the crowd loved the Blues Night performances of our outstanding local performers.

Throughout the weekend families and adults alike followed the Graffiti Knitting trail to view the quirky and delightful art that adorned the trees and other surprising locations around Greytown.
Visitors also got to view the Lego, Digital Art and the "I Love Greytown" Postcard entries at the Manchester Unity Hall on Hastwell Street.

A warm thanks to all the committee members and volunteers who brought such success to the Festival.
