Update: The duo headed out earlier today and we wish them a safe journey!

Meet Hobo Jo and Justin, two incredible adventurers making their way across the states. These two are enjoying living life and appreciating the world and people they meet along the way.

We are planning to share their story with you, but first we want to help them reach the other side of the river so they can continue their incredible journey!

If you have a truck and can help these two out, please reach out!

We need your help! During the festival, we will need help gathering items for our welcome packets, placing signage, booth sitters, event "runners", artist greeters, water distributors, hospitality hosts/hostesses, assistants for children's activities, etc. We would love to add you to our list of supporters of this fantastic event bringing the arts to downtown Vicksburg.
