Fayetteville Arts Festival This Weekend

September 5, 2008 11:57 am · By Dustin · 1 Comment

If you like Fayetteville, and you like art, and you also like attending festivals, then you’ll love the second weekend of the Fayetteville Arts Festival, taking place Friday thru Sunday in downtown Fayetteville.

While last weekend’s festival had an overall focus centered more around visual arts, this weekend’s focus seems to be on theatre and performing arts.

You can get more information about the second weekend of the Fayetteville Arts Festival at the Fayetteville Downtown Partners website, or if you’re real lazy and hate clicking links, you can just scroll down to get the schedule of events.

If you are too lazy to scroll down, dude, take a nap or something.

If you missed the first weekend (How could you!?!?), make sure you make it out this weekend.

Just as live music does, our performing arts community relies on support people like us. And of all the weekends to show support, this is one of the bigger ones.

If you like arts events, better show up. The Fayetteville Arts Festival already almost didn’t happen this year.
