Summerfest, July 16 & 17, 2011

With arts and crafts galore, food, entertainment and activities for the whole family, the Summerfest Arts and Crafts Festival is the premier mountain event of the summer and the Center for the Arts Evergreen’s biggest fund raiser of the year.  Mark July 16th and 17th for a weekend of fun at the Buchanan Park ball fields.

An event of this magnitude takes a village of volunteers to produce.  Reserve your front row seat for fun – and free entrance to the festival – by joining our Summerfest volunteer team.  You can help set up the festival, welcome artists, park cars, greet folks, spread hospitality or clean up.  Everyone is welcome and anything helps.
