The Floyd Town Jubilee, is a
celebration of our town and the citizens of Floyd County. This event will
showcase the art, craft and cultural activities of Floyd including fine art,
folk art, Heritage and contemporary craft, music, farm products, and local foods.
Free
live music and exciting events will be happening on three different stages and around
town. Throughout the day the Jubilee will showcase primarily local bands and
musicians. The music will range from Bluegrass and Old-time to Gospel and
country, rock and everything in between. This event will also feature
local performance artists and student presentations. Other attractions will
include street performers, vendors, civic organizations, special activities for
children, as well as unique coordinated activities among the businesses in
Town.
The
organizers of the event are mostly volunteers and range from the Town Manager,
Floyd business owners, artists, musicians and other interested Floyd folks.
“This year’s event will really showcase Floyd and all that it has
to offer. We have all worked really hard to make sure that we included mostly
local musicians, artists and business owners because the event is meant to celebrate
Floyd and it’s community”, says event volunteer, Heather Krantz, “It’s
going to be a great event”.
