FALL FOR THE ARTS A TREMENDOUS SUCCESS
 
The Arts Foundation of Cape Cod and Cape Cod VIEW magazine presented the region's first multi-town, multi-day arts festival on Saturday October 4th and Sunday October 5th.
 
This cultural tourism initiative benefited artists, arts organizations, arts-based enterprises, retailers and restaurateurs in the towns of Dennis, Falmouth and Hyannis.  After nearly a year of planning and hard work together, we succeeded in our FIRST YEAR in presenting a highly successful schedule of over 140 events which were enjoyed by residents and visitors.
