Main Street 2012 Fort Worth Arts Festival



It's a little gray and damp today, but the wet weather is moving out this evening and Saturday promises to be a glorious day for the Main Street Fort Worth Arts Festival.  There will be a juried exhibit along with original works of art for sale.  In addition, there will be lots of performing arts to enjoy across a variety of stages and you can even take part in creating your own work of art, if you'd like. There will be wine tastings and scrumptious culinary delights to please every appetite.

To make it easier to navigate the festival you can download the Main Street 2012 phone app.  You'll find street by street location guides for stage shows, art exhibits, and festival vendors. Admission is free and coupons for food and goodies are $1.00 ea. with the average meal running about  $8.00 to $10.00.  Water is free, so just pack your bottle or buy a nifty one there as a souvenir for 9 coupons. You can pack a picnic lunch and head for the festivities by catching the The T, which picks up in front of Cumberland on Granbury . The #6T route goes all the way into the Intermodal Transportation Center in downtown Fort Worth and from there, the festival begins just 2 blocks over. Bus fare is $1.50, and no parking hassles! 

This is one of the best annual festivals in North Texas, so take advantage of the sunshine, leave your car at home and have a great time this weekend at Main Street 2012 Fort Worth Arts Festival. Who knows--maybe you'll meet some neighbors while you're waiting for The T!
