Good morning, Johnson City.

On Saturday, Founders Park hosted an art festival that showcased colorful displays, live painting demonstrations, and many local artists celebrating the growing art scene — organizers say the event connected neighbors and highlighted local creative talent.

Despite a rainy start, participants gathered this morning in Johnson City for the Make Alzheimer’s a Memory Walk.
