Addition ArtsFest Info.....
An information tent will be at the Wabash entrance to the festival providing news from organizations located within the Arts & Cultural District. Our downtown eateries will be spotlighted with wayfinding signage to guide fest goers to sample the great food & drink offerings just steps away from the fest. Picnic tables will be placed throughout the festival area for those choosing carryout rather than dine-in. No need to carry your own chairs—there will be seating close to the stage area to allow fest goers the opportunity to sit and enjoy the performances.
ArtsFest hours begin at 11 am and close at 6 pm. Best of all, the ArtsFest is free! Art, music, and activities for all! Follow ArtsFest posts on 41|40 Arts & Cultural District’s page for the latest information. In addition to the sponsored stage and children’s area, additional funds were provided by the Indiana Arts Commission through the Consortium of State-Recognized Arts & Cultural Districts.
We hope to see you there!
