This year’s activities will include some returning events, like the Discovery Center JazzFest mural, which kids can paint, the Moon walk and other inflatables. One item missed from last year’s event will be a climbing wall, returning courtesy of the YMCA.

Garden Mart (Garden-Related Items Only)

The Garden Mart is an area devoted to the sale of items to jazz-up your garden. Organized by JazzFest volunteer Leslee Dodd Karl, Garden Mart will feature area vendors with unique, custom arts, crafts, plants and displays for the outdoors. Among the items being sold are mosaic stepping stones, hand-painted birdhouse gourds, and decorative birds that spin and pivot in the wind. Garden Mart will be located behind the Main Stage on South Church Street, across from Ray Hines, Inc.

Food

During JazzFest, the historic public square in downtown Murfreesboro will reverberate with the sounds of horns and drums but also with the aroma of polish sausage, roasted corn, funnel cake and other tasty treats. You’ll also find chocolate strawberries, jerk chick wings and fiesta nachos, fried catfish and sausage dogs. In addition to professional food vendors, many local non-profit organizations will be set up to sell ice cream, snow cones, cotton candy, and other fare.

Of course, all of our wonderful downtown restaurants will be open for business, including the Front Porch, Marina’s, The Maple Street Grill, Tomato Tomato, B. McNeal’s, the Clay Cup and the City Café.
