This is Westfield's Festival! Together, let's create a memorable event!

We’d Love to Have You Be Part of the Grape & Wine Festival.

A Community Festival Meeting will be held tonight, August 26, at 6:30 p.m., at the Westfield Methodist Church, and we’re inviting people who have helped with the Festival in the past—as well as anyone who might be interested in getting involved this year—to join us.

What really makes the Festival work is people from our community getting involved, and getting involved doesn’t have to mean making a big commitment.

If you can volunteer for a couple of hours, help with one activity, bring your organization into the Festival, help us promote it, or simply have an idea you’d like to share, we’d like to hear from you. So come and join in the fun!
