Bella Terra: Arts, Music & Culture Festival originated in 2009 as a benefit event to raise funds for Berkshire Arts Scholarships (BARTS), a scholarship program administered by the Railroad Street Youth Project, a 501c3 non-profit organization, in Great Barrington, Massachusetts. BARTS awards scholarships to disadvantaged western Massachusetts youths who are between the ages of 16 to 25, and pursuing an education or career in the arts. The goal of this event is to raise enough funds to continue to award potential BARTS candidates annually and award scholarships to a greater number of youths each year. Bella Terra also aims to provide a multidisciplinary atmosphere for local and national artists to showcase their work while integrating past and future BARTS recipients (and other aspiring artists) into the greater arts community.
