The IX Project is 17 acre, rehabbed industrial space, filled with art installations. We're calling it Field Day, after those magical days of lore. Against the backdrop of gospel, hip hop, jazz, rock and bluegrass, there will also be local food vendors, public art, games, and fun.

It's a Mothers Day Celebration. With a free musical program that includes:

2PM – 7PM: Children’s games and “Field Day” activities, hula-hooping and three-legged-egg-spoon-hopping-sack-racing in the outdoors. Public art being created and crafts vendors. Street food fair.

2:30PM: The Music Resource Center will feature original student hip-hop, rap and dance.

3:30PM: The ELBY BRASS Rock-Marching Band
