Bring back the artist and ink well. Kaleidoscope is way to much money

Writing and illustration go hand in hand.

Please allow the artists to truly show their art!

It's important for visual artists to be included because it attracts more audience to this event where writers can reach more readers that otherwise may not have attended. Writers and artists have a symbiotic relationship and together they can accomplish great things as they have been throughout history.

Inkwell is a major outlet for local artists of all skill levels. There's not really another event except Generations that give our artists a chance to shine.

Inkwell has always been for our local artists and was something that we look forward too every year. I feel like we are being shut out of our yearly event because the city has cancelled our show. We need it back for all of our local artists

Inkwell at Lecacy Commons is something our family looks forward to each year. It would be very upsetting to have it taken away.

Art is a form of expression and healing let's not take that away as well. Enough is already being taken at this point.

The visual portion of inkwell is very important to the community. We have a large group of seniors who participate in a weekly art class. We look forward to entering our art. Many have worked on drawings and paintings all year long and have the support of thier families. It is a wonderful way to bring the community of Palmdale together. Please consider reinstating the visual portion of inkwell. Thank you, Mrs Fuentes

Visual arts are needed to inspire and give hope to the Palmdale community

The main reason I attend Inkwell is for the artists (visual)!! It makes NO sense why you would exclude them this year! You can expect a massive drop in visitors I suspect.

I wonder what type of art does the city of Palmdale want to see! It’s a simple question and I would appreciate an answer. As an artist it would be a great guidance. It would give me some direction for future projects . Thank you City of Palmdale .

The City of Palmdale has been a positive supporter of local artists so I don’t understand why the decision was made to exclude artists from this event. I hope the COP reverses this decision.

Inkwell has always been a great event for local artists to connect with the community. It was well received by the public, too. It would be a shame to lose this great venue where all artists are able to show and sell their creations. Kaleidoscope is also wonderful, but it is out of reach for many since it is very costly to participate. Please don't cancel this opportunity for our local artists.

This is definitely a shocker for visual artists to be excluded from Inkwell Book & Art Festival

I am an Artist that has participated in Inkwell Book And Art Festival for the past 3 years. I have been told Local Artists won’t be allowed to participate in this Important Event . I have been hand drawing and painting Beautiful Art for all age groups for 1 year…this event is the way I reach all participants through ART. I am an Artist Instructor of AV ART CLUB. We have had several students that wanted to participate this year. This will be a huge disappointment for them. Could you kindly reconsider your decision thank you.
