Crossroads is debuting a new event to raise funds for senior and disability services in Muscatine and Cedar counties.
The program is called FestivALL and will be held from 1 – 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 23. Community members, local businesses, and organizations are invited to celebrate the inclusion of everyone and raise vital funds for senior and disability services in Muscatine and Cedar Counties. FestivALL is the perfect combination of old and new, blending the tradition of the Crossroads Carnival with a live music event to unite attendees of all ages and walks of life.

FestivALL is not just an event; it is a celebration of inclusion in our community. This year’s FestivALL aims to spotlight the strength that comes from the community when diversity is embraced and when aa sense of belonging is created for everyone. By bringing people together for a day of music and fun, Crossroads aims to bring awareness to the importance of inclusive practices that make the community more vibrant and welcoming.
This year FestivALL-goers will be treated to the captivating sounds of two bands: Iowa City-based Grateful Dead tribute band Winterland and the Quad Talking Heads tribute band Heads in Motion. These bands will fill the air with unforgettable melodies that will have you dancing in the street.
Carnival games, interactive activities, and engaging performances will also be available for anyone to try for a day of fun and laughter for family and friends.
In addition to celebrating inclusion, FestivALL serves as a critical fundraising event to support the impactful services of Crossroads. “Pie in the Face,” a silent auction and a 50/50 raffle will be held to help raise funds for programming Crossroads offers. All proceeds from FestivALL contribute to Crossroads services and advance the organization’s mission of cultivating choice and inclusion for seniors and people with disabilities.
Everyone is invited to attend FestivALL2023. Follow Crossroads Facebook page and Instagram for up-to-date event information.
