University City Partners Holds Inaugural Kids Festival At UNCC

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Thousands hit the campus of UNC -Charlotte Saturday for the first ever University Kids Festival.

University City Partners launched the festival this year with goals of expanding education and entertainment for children and families in the University City area.

There were different zones across campus for kids to learn, create and play.

“University City is a great place for families as we looked as how we wanted to invite Charlotte on how to come to University city, we thought that creating a very family friendly event was appropriate and it just grew from there,” said Darlene Heater of University City Partners.

University Partners hopes to put the festival on again next year.
