KINGSPORT, TN— Flamingos & Flip Flops! Come celebrate in your Casual Summer-wear (no swimsuits please) with the Downtown Kingsport Association (DKA) at the 9th Annual Evening with the Arts on Friday, May 15, 2009. The Arts Celebration will begin at 7:00 p.m. This event showcases local talent with presentations of both visual and performing art. DKA invites everyone to join us to celebrate our local artists. The Casual Summer-wear (no swimsuits please) lets you enjoy the art and the evening in a relaxed, but elegant manner. People will be dressed in everything from sundresses to Bermuda shorts. And, of course, wear your flip-flops or sandals! The event will be held in the Main Arts Center at DKA, which is located at 140 West Main Street in Kingsport, Tennessee. DKA will be transformed into a tropical paradise for the event, especially with Flamingos & Flip Flops! The evening promises to be filled with arts, music, food, and friends. And it’s all for a good cause—the Children’s Miracle Network and the Downtown Kingsport Association.
