The Storytelling Guild Presents Their 44th Annual Children’s Festival at The Britt Grounds in Jacksonville – July 11-13, 2010

Calling all kids, ages 1 to 100! You won’t want to miss the 44th Annual Children’s Festival. Sponsored by the Storytelling Guild of Jackson County, this innovative 3 day event will take place July 11-13th at the Britt Festival Grounds in Jacksonville and will bring out the creativity of both the young and young at heart as it has for generations.


As always, for a nominal entry fee of $2.00, the Children’s Festival will offer hours of entertainment with many imagination themed activities, and allow children and their parents to participate in over 30 hands on art, craft and science projects. Older children will enjoy candle making, pottery and wood working, while younger children will have a chance to make their own puppets, sand and easel art, and have their faces painted. The whole family can also look forward to child-focused stage performances and yummy food from our Dragon Deli.
