We know you are always looking for a good story, and we think that our sleepy little town of Clarkston has quite a few. In fact that is one of the reasons we created this festival and Concert. We want folks to experience  the Clarkston we love: beautiful, safe, friendly, quiet and homey. Those of us who live here  enjoy the natural beauty, proximity to Atlanta and are excited by the cultural, religious, and ethnic diversity.

Clarkston is home to people from over 85 countries,speaking over 150 languages, not to mention creative types, baby boomers, empty-nesters,  longtime residents and even a few northerners. We have 2 natural habitat parks, lots of green space and even a dog park! HECK YES, we are proud of our town  – especially the people in it.  Give us a visit and you too can find a unique story here in Clarkston.
