30th Anniversary Festival Set for June 1&2!

In 1983, MASH ended an 11-year, 251-episode TV run, Vanessa Williams became the first African-American to be crowned Miss America and McDonalds introduced the McNugget.

Did you know ‘83 was also the year a group of Virginia-Highland merchants – led by late Atkins Park owner Warren Bruno – got together and threw a block party that would eventually become Summerfest?

Yes, it’s really been 30 years since the first Summerfest, and organizers are hard at work planning this year’s festival. Featuring a 5K Road Race and Tot Trot, one of the largest juried Artist Markets in the southeastern US and a variety of local, regional and national acts performing on the Music Stage, Summerfest has become one of the most popular of Atlanta’s seasonal festivals. With the addition this year of a Farmer’s Market, the 30th anniversary event is sure to be one you won’t want to miss.

Sign Up Now to Volunteer!

The only way to get more out of your Summerfest experience than simply attending is to volunteer. If you’re receiving this email you’ve either helped us in previous years or expressed an interest in getting involved. Please support our incredible community by donating a few hours of your time at this year’s festival.

Volunteer shifts are generally 2-3 hours and you can choose to help with:

Volunteering is a great way to meet your VaHi neighbors and help ensure the success of the civic association’s biggest fund-raising event of the year. Volunteering can be a great way for high school or middle school students to get service hours and some of our best Kidsfest volunteers have been teenagers. You can even sign up for multiple volunteer shifts, if you like. Encourage your friends and neighbors to volunteer. Come join in the fun and go home with the coveted volunteer t-shirt!
