On Saturday, October 3rd, Sint-Katelijne-Waver was dedicated to art and culture during the Art Festival, an initiative that offered residents an accessible way to discover local creative talent.

The Art Festival, held on Saturday, October 3rd, featured a wide range of artistic expressions, including dance, drawing, and music. The event, organized in Sint-Katelijne-Waver, aimed to connect residents with local creative talent in an accessible manner and introduce them to new art forms.
The festival originated from an idea by Nicolas Lenz during his internship with the municipal administration. Together with Marijke Vertommen, Uschi Gils, and the department of community and leisure, the concept was further developed into a day of encounters in a relaxed festival atmosphere.
The organization emphasized the event's accessibility, serving as a platform for local artists and a meeting point for the community.
