Call For Artists: Greenway Art Festival

Presented by Murfreesboro Parks and Recreation and Friends of the Greenway, the annual Greenway Art Festival is held in Old Fort Park along the Murfreesboro Greenway. Large shade trees, Spring Branch Creek, and the extension of the Murfreesboro Greenway System as it connects through the park create a calm and pleasant atmosphere. Food, live music, and children’s activities enhance the festival.
