Description

What better place to talk cool cars than leaning under the hood of a '62 Studebaker GT Hawk against the cool mountain backdrop of Gunnison? Combine that with an arts and crafts festival across the street for the winning combination of the 2009 Gunnison Car Show and the High Octane Arts & Craft Festival on Aug. 20 - 22, 2010.

Several hundred prime vintage and custom cars will be on exhibit and on the roads of the Gunnison Valley during the 2009 Gunnison Car Show. The event, sponsored by the Gunnison Car Club, includes a cruise-in and free street dance on Gunnison's Main Street, an open car show, poker run, and breakfast cruise to Crested Butte. The show's theme is "Cool Cars. Cool Mountains."

On Sunday, there is also the High Octane Arts & Crafts Festival, held in Legion Park, across the street from Jorgensen Park, where the car show will be held. Previously known as the Big Blue Marketplace and The Festival of Crafts & Arts, the High Octane Arts & Crafts Festival will showcase arts and crafts from around the region. For more information, contact the Gunnison Country Chamber of Commerce at (970) 641-1501 or visit GunnisonChamber.com.

Admission to the car show is free to the general public, but there is a registration fee for cars that are entered. Car show proceeds are donated to community causes. For more information and to register, visit the Gunnison Car Club's website at GunnisonCarClub.com.
