The Charleston Arts and Revitalization Effort (CARE), which stages the annual Gateway to the Delta Festival in the city, has revealed the T-shirt and poster art design for this year’s event and unveiled a new themed offering.
“Oxford artist Pam Locke and printers ScreenCo of New Albany again designed and printed a beautiful festival shirt,” said CARE Executive Director Dana Clolinger.
For the first time, hatwear is listed among the Gateway merchandise offerings. A ventilated trucker-style cap will be available in this year’s Gateway primary color of green.
Festival T-shirts, available in sizes small to 3X, will be offered for $25, while caps and posters will sell for $20. Shirts can be reserved online at venmo@carearts.
The 15th Gateway festival will be held Saturday, Oct. 10, around Charleston’s courthouse square. It begins at 10 a.m.
This largest festival in Tallahatchie County boasts arts and crafts and other vendor booths galore; food trucks; class reunion tents; a Kids Zone featuring children’s inflatables, a variety of games both new and familiar and other activities; a car show; the “Smoochin’ Scissors” pig-kissing contest; award presentations; live musical entertainment throughout the day and into the night, and more.
Admission is free.
