For the 18th year, regional artists are coming together for the annual CELEBRATION OF ARTS. It will be held on Saturday, June 13, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
at the Tourist Park by the beach in Cumberland off Hwy. 63 N. on Beaver Dam Lake.

Many vendors will be selling their original hand crafted items including fine art, photography, hand blown glass, pottery, concrete and metal garden art, wood carvings, jewelry, textiles and more.

Anna Ruth Haugen, a talented young violinist currently performing in FIDDLER ON THE ROOF will stroll through the crowds playing her violin. Along the way, we will hear from other Fiddler cast members. A performance of FIDDLER will start at 7:00 p.m at the ETC Fine Arts Center.

There will be a supervised childrens area with face painting and a hands-on craft table for the budding artists to create their own original works.

The used book sale is a crowd pleasing favorite with the proceeds to benefit Cumberlands Thomas St. Angelo Public Library

Kettle Korn, cotton candy, home made pastries and ice cream, healthy sandwich wraps and lunch served by a local church group adds to the festivities.

Additional Fiddler Pictures....

ETC presents the classic Broadway Hit Musical Fiddler on the Roof the 2nd and 3rd weekends in June. Jerry Bock, Joseph Stein and Sheldon Harnick have adapted Sholom Aleichems stories of Tevye the Dairyman to this wonderful family play. Best known songs from this play include If I were a Rich Man and Sunrise, Sunset but there are another dozen or so songs that you may find yourself humming upon leaving the theater.

Fiddler depicts the life of Tevye and Golde and their five daughters and other friends as they make their way as Jews in pre revolutionary Russia, about 1905. Much of the story focuses on the marriages of three of the daughters, each one threatening tradition more than the last, as well as increasing troubles with the Russian authorities.

Dan Hoffman plays the lead the first week and Ron Ruppel the second week, and Val Dehline plays the part of Golde. Their daughters are played by Bethany Nash, Zoe Hopkins-Hile, Lauren Dehline, Caitlin Harris and Natasha Rodriguez.

Kelsey Pederson plays The Fiddler on June 11, 14, 19 and 20, and Anna Ruth Haugen plays The Fiddler on June 12, 13, 18 and 21. Hope Vicich is Yente the Matchmaker, and Jim Kerr is Lazar Wolf. Conor Erb, Josh Thornwall and Micah Weltzin play the grooms and Jeanne Beck, Jamie DeGolier and Abraham Ortiz are other soloists.
