Knightdale Arts and Education Festival takes place Saturday, September 8th, 2018, at Knightdale Station Park, 810 N. First Avenue, Knightdale, from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m.
This is a free event
Here’s what’s going on:
Come enjoy local artists, musicians, educational vendors and much more throughout the day. Children will enjoy taking part in hands on activities as well as inflatables. Food trucks, local performers, artists and live music will highlight the event.
Understanding that education is the pathway to success, the mission of the Knightdale Education Festival is to connect community members with local non-profits, educational, wellness and cultural arts opportunities they may not otherwise be exposed to. This collaborative effort of community partners plays an important role in strengthening the educational component in Knightdale and Eastern Wake County.
This year, K-Fest will focus on the elements of S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Math). Vendors will provide interactive activities for participants to have an enriched festival experience. S.T.E.A.M. is a “movement championed by Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and widely adopted by institutions, corporations and individuals.”
