Aidan Pollard May 4, 2021 MARION — After finding out how to schedule an arts festival to act as a surrogate for ArtWeek, Marion Arts Center Executive Director Jodi Stevens is hoping the weather stays nice. “Hopefully we won’t have to use our rain dates,” she laughed. The art center is putting on eight events for South Coast Spring Arts, a local festival with events across the region to act in lieu of the statewide ArtWeek festival. Spring Arts events at the MAC will run from May 7 to 16, with a mix of in-person, remote and hybrid events. Most outdoor events will have backup dates in case of rain.
