Augusta Festival & Block Party @ Elkins City Park

Artisans from around the region will set up booths with handmade art in the Elkins City Park from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Free workshops and interactive demonstrations of traditional art and craft, the West Virginia Open Fiddle & Banjo Contest, jamming, and community singing will round out the afternoon. In the evening, head across the street to the outdoor block party featuring fabulous music from Augusta musicians and dancing in the street. This is a don’t-miss event.

If you want to make a weekend of it, come early for the Friday night dance in the Augusta Pavilion on Davis & Elkins College Campus and jamming on the hill.
