Itâs time to get back together
Entertainment Is Alive In Van Wert
Tafi Stober Swon Brothers (Photo submitted) Excitement is brewing as Van Wert will be alive with festive
entertainment this weekend as Peony Festival activities bring us
together downtown. Feelings of nostalgia and a renewed sense of
community spirit surround us as we return to sharing experiences
together in person. The Van Wert Live team is humbled and honored for
the opportunity to return live music to the Fountain Park stage of
entertainment, thanks to the generosity of the Van Wert County
Foundation. This Friday will be a special gift and words fail to express
