ArtsCity Festival will still encompass the Augusta Common and the 700, 800 and 900 Blocks of Broad Street. Arts Council members and senior citizens will be allowed in 1 hour prior to published opening times. Over 100 juried “Arts in the Heart Artists” Booths will line up in the center of Broad Street on the 700, 800 and 900 Blocks. Booths will be spaced to integrate social distancing. Two Stages of non-stop entertainment will include the Global Stage on the Augusta Common with cultural music and dance along with popular music into the evening. A Jazz Stage will offer Jazz, Blues, and Roots performances. A limited number of the popular international food booths will be available on the Common, along with take-out from Downtown restaurant partners. Plenty of outdoor tables will be provided to encourage safe dining. This smaller festival allows us to offer a safer festival experience, help local and regional artists, our downtown restaurants with sales, while bringing our Community the diverse cultural experiences they love. On a smaller scale. We can’t wait to see you in September!
