Walton County Artist of the Year
Walton County Artist of the Year Program is Now Entering its 22nd Year
This outstanding community program showcases a collection of local artists representing a wide range of mediums, from painters to musicians. Through this program Walton County Tourism promotes the destination's thriving arts community while placing the spotlight on one talented artist.
The Artist of the Year program is an important tool to showcase the area's art galleries, studios, and talented musicians and performers. Art is not just part of our culture here, it is second nature.
