2008 is the 11th year. The Festival in
the Clouds is the largest and most popular event sponsored by the
Alma Foundation. The free outdoor art and music festival includes
about 25 bands and 40 regional artists annually. In addition to
fabulous art and music, the event features delicious food,
children’s activities, a beer garden, dancing and more.
The festival, originally intended to provide a
venue for local musicians and artists to gain exposure, has proven
to be the biggest Alma Foundation fundraiser. More than $7,000 was
raised in 2004 for area community projects.
