Artie Fest Community Celebration & Homecoming

From Artie Fest Community Celebration & Homecoming Website:

Artie Fest 2014 will take place July 11 - 13th in Martinsville. Plan now on being a part of the 5th anniversary of the greatest homecoming and community celebration of its kind in the State of Indiana.

What started out as a few friends and former classmates conversing on Facebook has exploded into a significant community event that is still being talked about. The stories that have been born out of Artie Fest include the formation of an active Community Band, the beginning of "Cinema on the Square", and the creation of a Scholarship fund, not to mention the many friends who reconnected.

For early arrivals, don't miss out on the Artesian Taste hosted by the Martinsville Rotary Club at the Art Sanctuary on Thursday evening. Friday night events planned will again include the Lion's Club Fish Fry, Gather Around BBQ, Cedar Creek Winery wine tasting and presentations of the Legacy and Ambassador awards. This year, the Artie Party will be on Friday night and we have added a corn hole tournament, too - all downtown, on the square!

On Saturday, highlights include a Kiwanis pancake breakfast, a Classic Car Show, a motorcycle ride, Artie Fest Golf Tournament, great entertainment, 5K Run & Family Walk, Artie fest Craft Show and wine tasting at the Cedar Creek Winery tent. Watch for new children's games and activities beginning at noon on Saturday and Saturday evening will feature Cinema on the Square with a great family movie!

On Sunday, Artie Fest wraps up with the Artie Splash at Jimmy Nash Park Pool, featuring $1 admission and Wine, Music & Fun at Cedar Creek Winery with Bigg Country.

Several classes have planned their class reunions around Artie Fest Weekend, and we encourage others to do the same. Plan now to attend this year's Artie Fest July 11 - 13th.

Once an Artesian, Always an Artesian!
