Waxhaw, North Carolina's Kaleidoscope Art Fest Returns Saturday, May 18th  

 

Mark your calendars for next weekend and get ready to enjoy music, food and art and to rub shoulders with some 5,000 of your Charlotte metro area neighbors in historic, downtown Waxhaw next Saturday at the annual Waxhaw Kaleidoscope Fest.

 

Waxhaw Kaleidoscope Fest's vision is to be the Charlotte region’s premier "work of art," showcasing  many art forms in a one-day festival ~ culinary arts, performing and musical arts, and fine arts and crafts. In other words, all things art "where the arts kaleid." The festival's goal in 2019 is to focus on and enhance the culinary arts by adding the Taste of Waxhaw venue, which will food bites from Waxhaw area restaurants.

Grant Schneider hi Grant... that is so true... as some of the small towns around us start exploding in growth, it's easier for them to sponsor interesting events for nearby residents.

Bob "RealMan" Timm hi Bob... as they say, "to each his own." Martial arts seem to be a big thing around here. Kids seem to love it.

It's a big thing here as well Nina Hollander  it's just I've grown past the stage of enjoying watching people beat each other up. It reminds me of that Indiana Jones movie where he has one guy after another come at him to fight and he controls the fights with his whip. After several men one big dude comes towards him with a knife and he says that's enough, draws a gun and shoots him. I'm at the stage where if someone wants to fight me I'm just going to pull my gun (yes I have a conceal carry permit and I'm always carrying) and shot them.

Nina this festival sounds like a lot of fun.  Even though it will be hard to find the time, I hope you are able to carve out a little time to go enjoy some of the fun.

Hi Nina Hollander, I'm certain this will be a well-attended event, especially since they took it down to only one day. Hope the weather will cooperate.

Endre Barath, Jr. hi Endre... this used to be a 2-day festival which attracted over 5,000 people each day. They've changed it to a 1-day event... I'm wondering if that means 10,000 people will show up that day.... that's an overwhelming number of people for a small town like Waxhaw.

Beth Atalay good morning, Beth. This festival attracts thousands and I'm suspecting that more will attend in one day now than used to.
