Festival UnBound is a 5-day hyper-local, arts-infused community celebration and conversation for those who call the Lehigh Valley home. Its mission is to engage our diverse community–through art and civic dialogue–in the radical act of envisioning our future together. Now, in its fourth year, Festival UnBound continues to change what it means to bring a community together and innovate new ideas to move us all in the right direction. This year's Festival UnBound runs from Sept. 28 to Oct. 2 and includes 10+ events – performances and gatherings at Touchstone’s outdoor Barrio Stage, and at venues across Bethlehem and Allentown, and two guest artist residencies – John Gorka, acclaimed singer-songwriter and former Bethlehem native, and Mark Valdez, nationally-recognized community arts activist.
