KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Following recommendations from the City of Knoxville and the Center for Disease Control, Dogwood Arts is postponing all events through May 11.
The current recommendation is that for the next 8 weeks all gatherings of 50 or more people either be postponed, canceled or held virtually. This recommendation impacts several popular events including Chalk Walk, Spring Featured Gardens and the Dogwood Arts Festival.
The health and safety of our community, artists, volunteers, and staff are always our top priority and we must all do our part to help slow the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19).
At this time, the recommendation does not impact the Southern Skies Music Festival scheduled for May, 16. Further updates will come should the situation change and the City of Knoxville, Knox County Health Department or the Center for Disease Control make any further recommendations or mandates concerning public events past May 11.
