August 30, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm
FREEThe Caldwell Arts Council invites you to experience a perfect Labor Day Weekend on the banks of the Yadkin River, surrounded by mountain music, dance, food, and beautiful scenery.
Festival fun begins at 7 p.m. Friday, featuring a community dance with mountain music, cake walks, open caller mic & more. Saturday is packed with great entertainment! Eight categories of music competitions begin at 10 a.m. on the main stage. The Youth JAM Tent offers performances by talented young musicians. Non-music and children’s activities include hayrides, storytelling, children’s crafts, and rock stacking in the river.
The weekend concludes with a Sunday concert starting at 11 a.m. featuring a lineup of musicians including Piney Woods Boys, Shelby Rae Moore Band, Strictly Clean and Decent, the Burnett Sisters, The Harris Brothers, and the Jeff Little Trio. The Youth JAM tent will host workshops in fiddle, banjo, guitar, and storytelling.
When was the last time you had the privilege of sitting on the banks of a mountain river with music echoing throughout the hills around you? Come for a day, or camp for the weekend.
