Beyond the Booths: 50 Years of Lazy Daze — event hosted by the Town of Cary. Visit carync.gov for details.
Beyond the Booths: 50 Years of Lazy Daze is a local history exhibition celebrating the golden anniversary of Cary's landmark arts festival. The town is hosting this retrospective to showcase archival photos, memorabilia, and stories from five decades of the annual street fair. If you plan to go, the exhibition is best suited for school-aged children who can appreciate local history displays. Admission to these town-sponsored historical exhibits is typically free, and you can find parking at the Cary Town Hall parking deck or along Academy Street. Because the displays are located indoors at town cultural facilities, it makes for an easy, weather-proof outing with a stroller. This exhibition is a smart weekend addition because it offers a quiet, educational break from the summer heat. It gives kids a sense of connection to their hometown roots before the actual festival weekend arrives.
