ABOUT THE RED RIVER REVEL
Red River Revel is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization serving the region around Shreveport, Louisiana with cultural programming in the areas of “Art, Music, Food.” Program events include Shreveport Farmers’ Market, CORK: A Red River Revel W**e Event, and the Red River Revel Arts Festival. Created in 1976, the Red River Revel is a multi-day annual arts festival bringing together visual, musical, and performing artists, along with the regional community for a celebration of the arts. The Red River Revel is a community partner with local nonprofits, over 20 of which serve food and raise funds using the unique blend of culturally inspired flavors of the area and beyond. Each year during the festival, thousands of area 4th grade students spend the school day at the Red River Revel learning about and participating in arts education programs. Local, regional, and national musical acts perform on two stages in Shreveport’s Festival Plaza during the event. Approximately 100,000 visitors from all over the country visit the Red River Revel Arts Festival each year. This “Celebration of the Arts” encompasses quality in visual and performing arts, seminars, workshops, children's arts education, and a variety of creative experiences. In addition to the festival, the organization manages the 13-week Shreveport Farmers’ Market, held weekly on Saturdays during the Summer. The Red River Revel also produces CORK: A Red River Revel W**e Event, an annual celebration of w**e and food, which serves as a fundraising event held at Festival Plaza each Spring.

Thank you...sincerely and with the deepest of gratitude we thank you for the outpouring of love, community, and goodwill for the past two weekends. The 50th Red River Revel Arts Festival was a magical celebration of the arts, of our culture, and of our region. We are thankful for all of the volunteers, vendors, artists, musicians, educators, and staff for making the enormous effort to build a festival that reflects who we are. Until next year...

For two weeks, we have been wondering who the mystery drum wall gnome is that was picking up broken sticks and keeping the area clean. Meet Andrew Presley, a Benton Middle School percussionist whose mother works the Benton Band Booster Funnel Cake Booth. His father, Sgt. Presley, is a Shreveport Police officer who works off duty security on the Revel site.

This is the heart and soul of the Red River Revel, where community and the arts meet volunteerism and goodwill; where people young and old from all walks of life come together to build something beautiful.

It's the final day of and our hearts are full from the celebration and harmony of the past two weekends. Tonight we have Windstorm closing us out on the Chase Stage and the return of Ceed on the Advocate Depot Stage. The Ambetter DMZ Stage will be rocking today with performances by Centenary Suzuki Music School, Guitar Center Lessons Showcase, Power and Grace Dance Studio, Bayou Belles, and Vicki's School of Dance (:

Come and buy up all the art you can carry at Art Alley and get your last fix of that favorite Revel Food Row dish. Gates open at 11:00 AM and we are ready to Revel with you one more time this year. ❤️

Apparently I’m doing festival recaps in reverse order these days. 😂

So… before I tell you about Kentuck, let’s rewind for a minute.

✨ The 50th Red River Revel ✨

From the entrance, to Artist Alley, to a quiet moment before the gates opened (and Dad getting a much-needed break 👋😂), to fireworks and a drone show lighting up the sky…

The 50th Revel was a pretty spectacular one.

And then, just like that, it was Monday and time to pack up and go.

I had two days to get home, fill orders, restock the booth, and get everything ready before heading to Tuscaloosa for…

✨ The 55th Kentuck Festival of the Arts ✨

We finished setting up today, and Kentuck starts TOMORROW.

So yes… I’m a little behind on Instagram. 😂
But I promise, I’ve been busy doing the things I’m supposed to be doing.

Making jewelry.
Packing orders.
Traveling.
Setting up booths.
And squeezing in a little magic along the way.

Now let’s go, Kentuck. ❤️
