ArtSplash cancelled because of low enrollment

The Greater Everett Community Foundation has cancelled its ArtSplash event because of a lack of enrollment, the foundation announced today.

Only eight people had purchased tickets for the Saturday evening event as of this morning, according to Maddy Metzger-Utt, executive director of the foundation. She said in an e-mail there are no immediate plans to reschedule it.

The event intended to offer ticket holders a sampling of work from local artists and food from local restaurants. Tickets were $50 for adults ages 26 or older.

The evening would have included demonstrations by a painter and a glass artist, a performance by the Northwest Savoyards and food from Terracotta Red, Smashed Tomatoes and Marimba.
