Wanted Music Festival

Prosper...Home to 2009 Arts and Music Festival on October 3

 

 

 

The Prosper Chamber of Commerce has announced its 3rd Annual Arts and Music Festival to be held on Saturday October 3 from 10 AM to 7 PM at the Prosper Town Center at Preston Rd and Broadway.  This family event drew over 3000 people last year and is expected to exceed that number this year.

 

Bill Remington, Prosper Chamber of Commerce Board Chairman and owner of Remington Realty Group stated “The Town of Prosper like other areas of Collin County is undergoing large population growth and we are poised to see some dramatic changes in our community over the next several years.  The Chamber believes this is an excellent time to showcase our town with the art, music and entertainment that we have here and in the surrounding communities.”

 

This Festival is becoming the signature event in Prosper and the Chamber of Commerce believes that while it is a family event it also demonstrates the business community spirit and therefore becomes attractive for new businesses to relocate here. Prosper is a family town and it is a vibrant one too.

 

The artists and crafters participating in the Festival are not only extremely talented but unique.  From origin original paintings, woodworking and stained glass to handcrafted jewelry, there will be something of interest to all event-goers.

 

While parents are visiting the booths, the children will be entertained by the special Kids Corner.  Linda Guthrie, Committee Chair of the Kids Corner says that we want the children who visit the Festival to have fun and find their inner artist.  Pony rides, a barrel train, pumpkin painting, and a petting zoo will be provided.  There will be an interactive crafts area.

 

The Scottish Rite Hospital will host a children’s health and safety booth with a face painter and special crafts.  Members of several local groups will volunteer to make this Festival take place.

 

The entertainment portion of the Festival will be provided by a wide array of local talented musicians and dancers.  Festival-goers can relax under a large tent, listen to the music and sample the cuisine from several vendors as well as the restaurants located within the Town Center itself.  From barbeque, Mexican food to funnel cakes, there will be something to tempt everyone.
