Atlanta World Kite Festival

#THEFUTUREISKITE ATLANTA KITE FESTIVAL
We will have activities for the whole family including building your own kite followed by a Kite Parade and Kite Demonstrations! There will also be Food Trucks and live music from Atlanta's own Alex Guthrie Music !
April is Autism Awareness Month but it is also Kite Awareness Month. So, We've partnered with the Atlanta World Kite Festival and Expo to bring a Kite Festival to Atlanta.
Our registration link is now live!
You can now purchase a Traditional Diamond Kite for $6 or a Hand kite for $4, which is a smaller version of a traditional kite that is made for younger children to hold with their hands by a stick that connects to the smaller kite.(pay via credit card or cash the day of the event). For each kite the Atlanta Kite Festival is donating $1 to the Autism Society of Georgia.
Please go to: bit.ly/AutismKiteFestival to register and get your kite NOW!
We are looking foward to a great day of food, music, and fun!

The 3rd Annual Atlanta World Kite Festival and Expo will continue the tradition of festivals and family by celebrating our communities, healthy families, and kite flying. Last year there were contests, local entertainment, food, arts and crafts, city leaders, local nonprofits, community organizations, and kite demonstrations.
The festival was built on the premise of “cultural awareness and community building.” Along with Mr. Rowell, a group of his family and friends decided to make a unique and positive contribution to their city by bringing our communities together.
