FAVE 5 reasons to visit Playalinda Festival of the Arts

The Playalinda Festival of the Arts has an eclectic array of live music, community arts displays, interactive robotics and more. Organizers describe it as "compelling art and cutting-edge technology merge with a coastal landscape and local culture at a celebration of a community in the midst of a renaissance."

In basic terms, they're proud of Playalinda Beach's beauty and the very smart NASA folks who live there. So why not celebrate?
