Each year the Gainesville Downtown Festival and Arts Show brings hundreds of people to Gainesville.

The festival blanketed the area of East First Street and University Avenue last weekend with art-filled tents and local cuisine.

From the Hippodrome to City Hall, children, families and college students filled the streets while walking to the beat of live music provided by local musicians at the recently renovated Bo Diddley Plaza.
