UNICOI - It’s strawberry time in Unicoi! And time once again for the annual Wayne Scott Strawberry Festival! Named in honor of the late Wayne Scott, founder of Scott’s Strawberries, this lively festival gathering celebrates the simple life with good-natured family fun, beautiful arts and crafts, toe-tapping, down-home bluegrass and bursting baskets full of ripe, red, juicy Scott’s strawberries to sweeten up the fun.

The Arts Council of Greater Kingsport (ACGK) will host the second biannual Arts Council Arts Crawl: A Passport to the Arts in Kingsport on April 29, 2010, 5PM-9PM. This unique collaboration unites artists, residents, and businesses for the purposes of increasing exposure for area artists, providing easy access to arts and entertainment for residents, and raising funds to be used to increase the awareness of the growing arts community in Kingsport.

Our first Arts Crawl was so popular we have decided to do it twice a year. The events will be on the last Thursdays of April and September.
