FORT HARRODS BEEF FESTIVAL- Harrodsburg, Kentucky
“The festival is designed to showcase Kentucky’s beef industry. Kentucky is the largest beef cattle producing state east of the Mississippi, and ranks 8th in US production. We are in the business of promoting and educating the public about the production, distribution, and selling of beef from the farm to the marketplace.”
The 10th annual Fort Harrods Beef Festival was hosted this year at the Mercer County Fairgrounds in Harrodsburg, Kentucky. This festival is great for all ages with activities such as inflatables for the kids, a youth competition grill off, live music, local vendors, and antique cars!
There’s also a progressive dinner with beef cuisine from local caterers and a Spirit and Bourbon tasting! Who doesn’t love some Kentucky Bourbon? With paint balling, arts & crafts, wine & cheese tasting, 5k run/walk, pageants, and carnival corral this festival is surely one to remember!
kNOwMORE nonprofits went out to this festival to film and learn about Harrodsburg and how this festival supports the local community. Be sure to check out our kNOwMORE nonprofit segment about this festival!

WOODLAND ART FAIR- Lexington, Kentucky
The year 2015 marked the 40th Annual Woodland Arts Fair! The Woodland Art Fair is hosted by Nancy Barron and Nancy Barron & Associates, Inc. This local community event hosts 200 artists, live music & food and fun for the whole family.
With a mission to challenge, educate, engage, and enhance our community through visual art, The Lexington Art League envisions a world where art, artists, and art-making are central to human inspiration, self-realization, and meaning.
The “Big Tent” started at the Woodland Art Fair in 2013. It was used as a way to show the Lexington Art League’s presence at the fair. It now provides interactive art experiences for all ages. There will be four featured artists at the Big Tent this year. The 2015 featured artists are Matthew Cook of Border State, David Kenton Kring, Dronex, and Sarah Jane Sanders. kNOwMORE nonprofits was out at the festival interviewing individuals about the nonprofits that help support and run these festivals!
