It will feature local artists selling their works throughout the downtown area, live music including a performance on the downtown square by jazz musician Dave Smith, a performance by Marion County Center for the Arts Dance, and hands-on art activities and demonstrations for all ages provided by local non-profit and cultural organizations.

Multiple downtown businesses are extending their hours of operation for this week’s event. If there is inclement weather, the event will be cancelled.
