And that's not all...

We will have fifty or more fiddlers playing on the roof of Fisher Pavilion to highlight our Fiddlers on Roofs YouTube contest.

We’ve also got the amazing acrobatic skills of the Cabiri, making you realize that whole gravity thing is just a myth.

A K Mimi Allin has cooked up a new piece called the “Not So Easy Chair.” We dare you to sit in it.

Bunny suits and super heroes! Rainbow cloaks and Vader onesies. Fuzz, synths, sing-a-longs, and yes more fuzz! Yup, we’ve got The Hoot Hoots.

Silent film with harp accompaniment...in a tent? Yes, you read that right! Harpist Leslie McMichael classes up the joint.

The Queens of Nano-performance, 3rd Shift Dance Company will be displaying their jaw-dropping, boundary-pushing choreography.

The Live Painter, Matthew Scott, will be painting a new piece for you inspired by the fair.

Oh yeah. And the amazing Rainbow City Band will kick-off the festivities with a raucous march into Fisher Pavilion!

Doors open at 11am! FREE and open to all.
