The Hopkinsville Art Guild and the City of Hopkinsville are hosting the fourth annual Derby Arts Festival on May 7, 2011.  The event is free and open to the public.  It will be held from 10:00 to 2:00 inside Bradford Square Mall, 4000 Ft. Campbell Blvd., Hopkinsville, KY.

We all know that a thriving arts community is essential to a community where people enjoy living and rearing their family.  This event will feature live music and dancing provided by area children and adults. Some of the performers will be Belmont Elementary School Choir, the combined bands from Hopkinsville Middle School, North Drive Middle School and Christian County Middle School under the direction of Bill Fisher, Fourth Dimension Dance group, and Danny and Dottie Shepherd on their Dulcimers.

The “Creation Station” will give children a chance to experience several free art activities.  They can also develop skills in decorating a Derby Hat, drawing a horse, making a book, and creating chalk art projects.  Also children can try to Pin-the-Tail on Secretariat and get their face painted. 

Please join us for a wonderful day in Hopkinsville on Derby Day, May 7th. at Bradford Square Mall.
