Athfest brings weekend of music and art to Athens

My favorite time to be in Athens is the fall, but when I’m not daydreaming about beating Florida (again), Athfest has my attention.

The three-day music and arts festival begins tomorrow and runs through Sunday, bringing together the best local and regional musicians and artists in downtown Athens.

The weekend features non-stop music, art and food vendors lining the street, and a whole block filled with plenty of activities for kids. For adults, I recommend checking out the Club Crawl. Athfest also raises awareness for AthFest Educates, a nonprofit that provides funding for youth music and arts education.
