Festival of Hope

Festival of Hope: A Performing Arts Festival Supporting Local Agencies

 June 13 & 14, 2009

The Festival of Hope will celebrate and raise funds for six local non-profit agencies that bring hope to individuals, families, and groups.  Each agency represented responds to needs of the Albany community in a unique and valuable way that encourages and enables so many to grow, heal, survive, and thrive despite difficulties that seem insurmountable. 

The event will be held at Linn Benton Community College – utilizing the quad, two main stages, and possibly the gym for interactive performances.  It is a spacious and welcoming campus and will be filled with fun, excitement and talent for this event!

This is a performing-arts festival, with performances starting alternately on two stages throughout the weekend.  In addition, the LBCC quad will be open to a variety of food, arts, and craft vendors, as well as hosting an outdoor children’s stage and activity center.  To download our complete list of performers, visit the "Performers" tab.
