Festival of the Arts

Altona's cultural roots run deep. The community is a wealth of talent and nowhere else is this more boldly displayed than at the Festival of the Arts. Held every spring in Altona, the Festival draws talented competitors from communities across southern Manitoba. Under the keen eye of experienced adjudicators, violinists, pianists, vocalists, and orators of all ages display their skills before a proud audience of instructors, family and friends.

Performers all receive valuable constructive criticism on their chosen pieces, but only a select few walk away with the envied trophies. Festivals such as this have been a huge success through the years, launching the careers of many young performers.
