The Youth Arts Festival will feature visual artists' booths where children can participate in creative activities making their own masterpieces, along with performing-based activities including puppet making, storytelling, music, and theater interactive activities. On the main stage enjoy performance by ECU,
Pitt County Schools, and community students.
The Youth Arts Festival is a joint project with Emerge Gallery & Art Center, Jaycee Park Center for
Arts & Crafts, East Carolina University's College of Fine Arts and Communication, the Arts Education programs of Pitt County Schools, and Pitt Community College.
