Organizers and participants are gearing up for the Spring Youth Fair, set for May 3-5 at the Southwest Washington Fairgrounds.

Visitors can view a wide variety of living and still-life exhibits, including art, science projects, baked goods and more from area youths. Attendees can also sample fair foods and fares from local vendors and partake in activities such as putt-putt golf and rock climbing.

The fair operates on the motto “kids are special, fairs are fun” and aims to provide a fun learning experience for all youth — regardless of their background or where they live.

Tickets are $5 per day for adults and kids 13 and up and $4 for kids 6-12, seniors and military members. Kids 5 and under are free. Entry on Friday is free for all.

Hours are 5 to 8 p.m. Friday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.
