Horse Cave shows heritage Festival, fine weather draw large crowd to annual event By STACY L. NEITZEL Glasgow Daily Times GLASGOW — Beautiful weather no doubt contributed to the heavy attendance at this year’s eighth annual Heritage Festival in Horse Cave. Hundreds of people browsed the streets, partaking in the fun.
“They’re having a ball,” said Tim Tapscott about his two children, Autumn and Cordell, who proudly showed off their painted faces. “It’s something fun for the kids to do,” he said. The two-day event featured a variety of musical acts ranging from traditional Bluegrass and gospel to alternative rock. Headlining this year’s event was Nashville recording artist Clay Underwood and country music singer Andrea Childress. Some 20 bands entertained the crowds over the weekend. Festival-goers visited the booths of dozens of vendors who showcased their handiwork, including crafts, leather goods, jewelry, quilts and more. The antique cars and tractors also drew a crowd. But it’s the festival’s charm that keeps people coming back year after year. “I fell in love with this place. It’s the one show I do for me,” said Murray artist Annette Owsley. She sells her paintings each year while offering face painting for the kids. “I do this show every year,” said Owsley. This makes the seventh straight year she has made the trip to Horse Cave. She painted a frog on the face of 2-year-old Olivia Meyer. “She’s been talking about the frog all day,” said Meyer’s grandmother, Betty Bush, as she watched Owsley work. Owsley said she enjoys the family atmosphere at the Heritage Festival. “I love the kids,” she said.
