Festival in the Park, Charlotte's oldest and ever popular art's festival, opens Thursday, September 23, 2009 at 6:00pm at Freedom Park and runs through Sunday, September 26. Admission is free to all!

Over 150 artisans have been invited to exhibit and sell their work at the 46th annual Festival in the Park. Festival spectators will have the chance to meet and chat with the artists while looking for that special piece of artwork to grace their home. From caricature artists to fine oil paintings and pottery, the Festival offers art for all ages.
