Art cars from Chattanooga’s We Make Festival.

This weekend in downtown Chattanooga, you’ll see a celebration bursting in colors - from art cars and international food to student art exhibits and works by local artists.

The We Make Festival - a family-friendly celebration of this city’s creative community, presented by the nonprofit Art 120 - is this Saturday, from 11 AM to 4 PM, on the Chattanooga Green.

I spoke with Kate Warren of Art 120 and artist Briah Gober.
