It was difficult to find a parking space in downtown Wetumpka Saturday. But easy to find great wildlife art as The Kelly Fitzpatrick Center for the Arts hosted the fourth annual Wetumpka Wildlife Arts Festival.

The event featured wild-life artists, dog kennels and more from across the Southeast in what has been described as the greatest wildlife arts festival in the state.
