Haywood festival gets new name, announces date

The Haywood County Arts Council has renamed their outdoor summer festival. Previously known as International Festival Day, the name has been changed to ArtFest. 

ArtFest will be held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, July 19. Though the name has changed, the festival will continue to feature food, live entertainment and children’s activities as it has for the past 28 years. 

Artists and vendors may obtain a festival application at Gallery 86 in Waynesville, or by visiting www.haywoodarts.org online.

We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home.
