The Youngstown Summer Festival of the Arts is looking for local and regional arts and crafts guilds and societies interested in demonstrating their skills during the two-day event. The festival is scheduled for July 7 and 8 on and around the campus of Youngstown State University. This is the first time in the event's nine-year history that societies and guilds have been asked to participate in the festival. They will be given a designated time to display their work and demonstrate their craft. For more information, contact Lori A. Factor at (330) 941-2307 or lafactor@ysu.edu.
