FUSE Fest is an intergenerational experience. FUSE Fest celebrates life and culture. FUSE Fest is irrepressible love. Fuse Fest is a FREE event for the people by the people … all the people! We are fusing art, music, edutainment and culture to nurture mind, body, and spirit!
This year’s theme is Unseen to Unstoppable: Real Stories. Real Strength. New Realities. Unseen to Unstoppable represents a powerful vision of transformation fueled by resilience, creativity, and collective action. It speaks to the journey of people and communities who rise from being overlooked to becoming undeniable forces of change. Fuse Fest is set in the heart of Downtown Norfolk Church Street at Purpose Park, a teen-led acre sized Community Garden and Creative Space that lights up Norfolk with its bright art murals, 10 foot Sunflowers, pond, raised fruit and vegetable beds, fruit and flowering trees, and stage.
Fuse Fest brings community members together, fused to be stronger, healthier, resilient & united.
