About this listen

The source provides excerpts from a news article published by WRDW/WAGT detailing the upcoming Arts in the Heart festival taking place in downtown Augusta, Georgia. This event, scheduled for the weekend of September 2025, features five music stages, over 150 art vendors, and numerous food stations, with a new layout extending from Augusta Common toward Reynolds Street to increase visibility for participants. The article includes commentary from the Executive Director of the Greater Augusta Arts Council about the logistical support from the city, and from local business owners, like the manager of The Boll Weevil, and an artist/vendor, expressing hope that the new location will lead to increased foot traffic and sales. Tickets are available for $15 in advance or $20 at the gate, with free entry for children and volunteers.
