Youth Activities

With the help of area partners, the Discovery Area offers fun activities and experiences for our youngest Festival goers.    From printmaking to origami, puppeteering to sand-play, bubbles to paddleboats, this area will get the creative juices flowing.

Inside the Interactive Tent kids have the opportunity to interface with a number of different artists at scheduled times throughout the weekend.  There will be drumming, dancing, magic, music and visual artists to inspire and entertain up and coming artists.
