AthFest Educates

AthFest Educates is a nonprofit organization committed to sustaining and advancing music and arts education for K-12 youth in Athens Clarke County.

To fulfill our mission, we produce two annual fundraisers, The AthFest Music & Arts Festival and The AthHalf Half Marathon & 5K. The proceeds from these events fund the organization’s annual grant-making efforts.

AthFest Educates Grants for 2023-24 have been announced! Congratulations to all the awardees!
