With open-ended activities, participants of all ages enjoy the activities at the festival. Thank you to the Red & Black for covering the 2018 Athens Water Festival.

These organizations made the 2018 Athens Water Festival possible.
ACC Public Utilities Dept: Play "Water Drop Plinko", create avenger arm bands, and learn how we clean both your drinking water and dirty water everyday
GA River Network: Learn the various watersheds found in Georgia.
Trout Unlimited: Have you tried fly fishing before?
