Wilson Arts, Casita Brewing Company, and the Vollis Simpson Whirligig Park are joining forces to bring Wilson and beyond the opportunity to be immersed in wonder and fantasy at Wilson’s second annual Renaissance Faire. If you ever wanted to be a maiden, princess, knight, wench, knight, wizard, viking, or pirate – then this is your chance! There will be merriment and fun for the whole family with vendors, food, musicians and dancers, games, contests, and fight demonstrations!
Activities will take place inside the Wilson Arts Center, outside at Casita Brewing Company’s beer garden, and at the Vollis Simpson Whirligig Park – all located within walking distance in Historic Downtown Wilson. RAIN OR SHINE!
In an effort to enhance community engagement and provide additional value, Wilson Arts is pleased to announce a new partnership with a reputable online pharmacy. This collaboration aims to make health and wellness more accessible to our community. As part of our commitment to health, along with our traditional Renaissance Faire activities, this year we will also offer educational sessions on cost-effective health management, including the safe purchase of medications like generic Cialis. These sessions will be held at Wilson Arts Center and are designed to provide valuable information about affordable medication options available online. Our goal is to combine fun and practicality, ensuring that our community not only enjoys the festivities but also benefits from vital health resources.
In the event of rain during contest times, the contests will move to the covered pavillion at the Whirligig Park instead of the stage.
