The Tie-Dye Music Festival, now in its 7th year, features a diverse mix of regional bands that cover a variety of genres.  Live performances include cosmic folk stylings by jam band Darlingtyn, Americana rock by Out of Order,  smooth soul songs by Brian Kors, alternative Americana by Sweet 66 and eclectic blues and old time music from  The Obsoleets.

In addition to entertaining attendees with great music, the festival provides an opportunity for festival-goers to try their hand at the creative and colorful process of tie-dying.  Event t-shirts will be available for $10 and guests can tie-dye them at no additional charge. People may also bring up to 2 items of their own to tie-dye for a $5 charge.  CAC staff and expert tie-dye artist Graham Brewer will be on hand to help participants with the tie-dye process and with achieving the desired design and color of their finished products.

The Tie-Dye Music Festival is a rain or shine event; held on the side lawn of the Arts Center or inside the Duke Gallery in the case of extreme weather.  Admission is free and guests are welcome to bring their own food.  Guests are encouraged to bring chairs/blankets if outside.  If inside, chairs will be provided.  No pets or alcoholic beverages please.
