Build Forever Fest is a free, family-friendly Art and Music Festival. This first annual event is designed to celebrate creativity, community and local culture through a full afternoon of live music, live painting, interactive art activities and performances. The festival will feature free make and take art, a creators and makers vendor market, fashion and upcycling showcases, free henna art, lawn games, food trucks, and over 40 local live music performances throughout the day. Visual Artists will be creating live work on site, turning the park into an active, immersive arts space for attendees of all ages.
*Build Forever Fest is presented by Lucky Tree Planted (501(c)(3)) in partnership with local artists and community organizations and is held in loving memory and inspired by North Carolina artist J. Bow. The event's mission is to make art and music accessible, support local creatives and foster a positive inclusive community gathering in downtown Raleigh.
