The Hopewell Valley Arts Council was delighted to once again judge the impressive display of arts and crafts at the 2026 MERCER COUNTY 4H Fair.

After many years of judging at the Fair, the Arts Council was especially honored to be recognized during Saturday’s Opening Ceremony. It is always a privilege to celebrate our community’s creativity, and we look forward to many more years at the Fair!
