Bright House Networks is the proud
Official Sponsor of the
24th Annual Melbourne Art Festival!

The Melbourne Art Festival is one of the finest and most energetic festivals in Southeast United States. Don't miss the opportunity to be a sponsor of one of the premier fine art shows on Florida's Space Coast.

For the past twenty-three years, the Festival has brought to the Melbourne area a two-day event that remains unprecedented. Attended by over 60,000 people each year, the Festival presents an extraordinary collection of juried fine art, it also provides fine entertainment, delectable foods, an expansive student arts and craft program, a student art scholarship, and an outstanding 5K run.

The Melbourne Art Festival continues to provide this top-notch event free of charge through the help of donations and sponsorships. We are a 100% volunteer organization, and our volunteers are many of the same people who work and live in our community, who helped to start the Festival years ago and who continue to dedicate their time and talents to this special event.

Our advertising campaign includes print, radio, and TV covering a large area of Central Florida. The Melbourne Art Festival continues to offer a family friendly event providing sponsors with branding opportunities, product demonstration,and exposure that increases sales and develops an enhanced corporate image.

The artwork selected for use on our promotional poster, tee-shirts, and printed advertising changes every year. Our poster, directory and our T-shirt designs have won numerous awards at the Florida Festivals and Events Association convention. In 2005, the 5K Flamingo Run won Best Promotional Poster in the state of Florida. In 2003, our promotional poster, which includes the logos of our top sponsors, won Best Promotional Poster. It is an honor to compete against such shows as the Boca Raton, Winter Park, and the Coconut Grove Art Festivals. For many years our Festival has been rated by Sunshine Artists Magazine as one of the top 70 best shows in the nation.
