Calling all James Dean lovers to Grant County

3 ThFeEchoNews.comEATURES September 21, 2018 FRIDAY Calling all James Dean lovers to Grant County Annual James Dean festival coming soon Mica Evans Staff Writer

The Fairmount Historical Museum in Grant County will be hosting their annual James Dean Festival from Sept. 28 until Sept. 30 starting at 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and ending at 4 p.m. on Sunday. If you missed out on last year’s festival, you do not want to miss out on this one. This family-oriented festival is for all ages. Every year, there are turnouts from grandpar- ents, young adults, and children, so the Taylor community is immensely welcomed. “The museum began sponsorship as a way to raise money to keep our doors open and to keep the festival going, no small task. This is the mu- seums primary source of income as we are totally self funded. This is our 43rd year!” said Cole Reeves, president of the Fairmount Historical Museum. If you are an automobile lover, one event at the James Dean festival you will not want to miss is the car show. Tons of ’50s classic and custom automobiles will be on display. Most of the cars in this show are from the late ’40s–’60s. However, Photograph provided by showmegrantcounty.com the show is restricted to entry of These folks are dancing up a storm at the James Dean Festival as they reminisce about their high school days.
