Kentucky Heartwood kicks off its 15th Annual Music Festival at the Millville Community Center on Saturday, July 31 from 3-10 p.m.
The event features a youth music contest, art exhibitors, childrenâs activities, a chalk-drawing competition, hands-on workshops, dancing, and entertainment by local bands Nate Orshan and Native Invaders. Entry fee is $8 per person; kids are free.
According to organizer Chris Schimmoeller, the festival was conceived 16 years ago as a fundraiser for Kentucky Heartwood, whose mission is to protect and restore the integrity, stability and beauty of Kentucky s native forests. While the festival is the organization s biggest fundraiser of the year, she said it has also become a wonderful family event that is becoming a tradition in our community. My daughters have grown up with the festival, and it has been fun to see the festival grow up with them. Â Â
