Main Street Manager Loretta Wagner said that the community loves other CRC events, such as the Bloom & Berry Bash and the Fall Festival. She said organizers wanted to offer a similar event for members of the art community.
As well, she said organizers wanted to keep the festival downtown, so that local merchants would have the opportunity to participate and be a part of it.
