Free Kids Activity Tent Debuts at Ketchum Arts Festival

This year marks the debut of the Kids’ Activity Tent at Ketchum Arts Festival. From 10AM-4PM each day, art activities, frivolity, and fabulous miscellany will entertain the young ones, and give the older folks a chance to enjoy other festival offerings. The Kids’ Activity Tent, or KAT, offers painting, puppets, bubbles, hooping, collaging, stories, face painting, and even more! There’ll be a special activity timetable posted by the tent, so you can plan your shopping time. This free, fun but educational, KAT is available to anyone with a cell phone on site. Children 4 and up can be signed in and left, and younger ones may stay and play if someone (at least fifteen years old) stays with them. KAT grew out of Ketchum Arts Festival’s desire to give back to the valley community in appreciation for eleven years of the community’s whole-hearted support of art and our arts festival in particular. Your family and friends will love lazing in the shade under the big yellow striped tent, grooving to the local musicians, and lunching on mouth-watering BBQ, street tacos, and burgers from local chefs. Sip a fresh-blended coffee smoothie or savor a microbrew from Sun Valley Brewery as the sun drops towards Baldy. Don’t worry; if you don’t shop enough to work off the calories, you can dance them off. Every year the Festival brings lots of great music, and this year as a special treat, Paul Tillotson Trio will play from 1-2:30PM both Saturday and Sunday. Check the schedule by the stage for show-times of other favorites like Kim Stocking Band and The Mighty Shims. Mark your calendar to spend a few hours at the Ketchum Arts Festival on Friday, Saturday and Sunday July 8-10, 2011 (10AM-6PM daily).
