History
The Intuitive Arts Festival humbly began in 2009 as a gathering of spiritual souls at the Orange Hall in Fernwood. Founded and organized by Psychic Andrea Zonnis, the Festival was ignited by a vision to bring everyone together to spread more love into the world. This was the first psychic festival to be offered in Victoria for decades.
As our community started to grow we needed more room to accommodate all of our amazing participants so the festival was moved to the Fernwood Community Centre, then the James Bay Community Centre and finally, the DaVinci Centre. Mini events put on by the Intuitive Arts Festival have been happening at the Church of Truth for quite some time. Our intention has been to attract heart-centred, spiritual seekers to join together in the spirit of healing, abundance and intuitive connection.
As the pandemic hit the world the Intuitive Arts Festival moved to an online format in 2020. Coming back in 2022 as a hybrid event (online & in-person) after a year of rest in 2021, this year 2023 we are excited to be back in full swing!
Our big event, happening the first weekend of November, hosts 44 exhibitors that offer a variety of metaphysical services and holistic products AND 2 days of workshops, lectures and talks facilitated by industry professionals. We are expecting between 700 – 850 attendees and participants this year! Participants are encouraged to talk to each other with hopes of meeting new like-minded friends.
