Presented by Partners in Racial Justice & Chatham County Unity Coalition, Race Amity Day is a celebration of art, music, song, poetry, theatre, storytelling, children’s activities, & More. The
theme for 2025 is “One Human Family”, which invites everyone to come together in unity and compassion. Join us Saturday, June 7th, 2025, from 1 pm –7 pm at the Chatham County Agriculture &
Conference Center located at U.S. Hwy 64 West Business, Pittsboro, NC. The event is free. Everyone is welcome!
The exhibit is open to both adults and students in kindergarten through 12th grade, whether they attend public school, private school, or are home-schooled. Deliver your art on June 7th, 2025
during Race Amity Day from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at Chatham County Agriculture & Conference Center 1192 U.S. Hwy 64 West Business, Pittsboro, NC. While we hope artists, students, and parents will attend the event, teachers may drop of work at 12:00 noon.
Award winners will be selected by Chatham Artists Guild’s professional artists and announced at 3:00 PM. Artists do not have to be present to win. Art is to be picked up at 7:00 P.M. or contact
