ColorPalooza is back and it's bringing a burst of hues, creativity, and eco-friendliness to Lewisville tomorrow, April 27, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Held at Wayne Ferguson Plaza, 150 W. Church Street, the family-friendly affair is a full-blown extravaganza of spring-themed exhibits and interactive activities, according to the City of Lewisville, Texas.

New to the lineup this year is the Cultural Corner Pods—they pack a punch with their celebration of Ukrainian and Colombian cultures through food, music, and dance, not to mention a nod to pop icon Taylor Swift with a Friendship Bracelet Station. Alongside sun print art-taking from Lizzie's Little Darkroom and bath bomb creation with Buff City Soap, these additions mark a clear expansion from last year’s offerings.

Returning favorites aren't being sidelined, however. The streets will again be adorned with impressive ephemeral chalk art by professional and amateur artists alike for Chalk This Way, and those DIY impulses can be indulged at the tie-dye station brought to you by Kris Tees. Live art demos will keep crowds entertained, and let's not forget the DJ Experience or the cookie temptations at the Creatively Sweet Desserts Boutique’s booth.

Live performances aren't taking a backseat either, with the Wayne Ferguson Plaza Stage set to host talents like Mel Garsek and Dallas Asian Strings, and then there’s The Grays who'll take the crowd on a Disney journey with a special appearance by Moana—meanwhile cultural expressions from Danza Azteca Guadalupana and Zorya Ukrainian Dance Ensemble Dallas, amongst others, will light up the CoServ Stage at City Hall.

This vibrant festival is not just about the fun; it's also pegged to the "Old Town" Big Move under the Lewisville 2025 vision plan, aiming to foster community spirit while drawing attention to environmental stewardship—worthy goals indeed. Sponsors include a bevy of local heavyweights such as the Lewisville Grand Theater, Old Town Wine House, and many others. For those eager to dive into the festival's full agenda, including a detailed performer's schedule and vendor lineup, casting a glance at the LewisvilleColorPalooza.com site will spell out all the day has in store.
