Thanksgiving Point Hosts Harvest Festival And Art Market
The second annual Thanksgiving Point Harvest Festival and Art Market will take place on Sept 23 and 24. The festival is held at Water Tower Plaza at Thanksgiving Point, located just west of I-15 in Lehi (about half-way between Salt Lake City and Provo).
The festival offers the chance to buy farm-fresh product and learn about many gardening topics. In addition, it offers live music and many kinds of activities. A “quick draw” competition will allow artists to show off skills by creating a painting in 90 minutes or less. There will also be a “great pumpkin” weigh-off.
See the Thanksgiving Point website for more information. The festival provided the information below. Several other fun festivals are offered in Utah County. See this website for details.
