L.I.V. Fest

Welcome to LIV Fest, an event organized by L.I.V. (Life Is Valuable) - a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing resources to schools and communities that help cultivate creative expression, collaboration and entrepreneurship in a way that promotes positivity, balance, health, and happiness within everyone's lives. The event will be held at Haus On Market, in Petersburg, VA on May 20th from 12p-4p. This event is sponsored by Culture Works. LIV Fest will give young artists an opportunity to connect with the Petersburg arts community in a tangible way. Without creating spaces like this, students may never have the chance to connect with mentors in the industries they're interested in or get involved with the Richmond and Tri-Cities' arts community. This will be an immersive, hands-on experience. Even if you're not an artist, manager, or fan, please choose a role and come up with a fictitious name to participate in all activities.
