Encounter Artsfest 5k

It's back! Artsfest is partnering with Encounter Church to bring this awesome footrace back to the streets of Athens.  Held on the morning of Artsfest Sunday, the 5K run/walk will give participants an opportunity to compete for top prizes, get some exercise, or simply get out and enjoy a great community event.  Whether you are hoping for a PR or it's your first race, the Encounter Artsfest 5K will be a great time for all! Have young children? A kids fun run will be held immediately before the "main event" and face painting will be provided as well. Proceeds directly benefit two local organizations, the Sayre House of Hope and the Bridge of the Penn-York Valley Churches.  We hope to see you there!
