4th annual Ice Cream Splash this Friday

July 12, 2018

There's no better way to celebrate National Ice Cream Month AND raise money for important community causes than by attending the fourth annual Ice Cream Splash hosted by the Jefferson City Cultural Arts Foundation July 13 in downtown Jefferson City from 6 p.m.-9 p.m. 

This family-friendly event will provide an opportunity to taste-test many kinds of ice cream, enjoy live entertainment, and play games at a variety of booths! Proceeds from the Ice Cream Splash will go towards future Cultural Arts Foundation projects.

“We are so excited that the splash park is moving forward, and that JC Parks plans to break ground this summer,” said Natalie Newville, Ice Cream Splash Committee marketing chairman. “This event is something the community looks forward to all year long, and we are happy to continue it... and of course the ‘all you can eat’ ice cream!”

Advanced tickets are $5 for ages 3-11, and $10 for ages 12 and up. Tickets can be purchased at Hy-Vee, Carrie's Hallmark, or Gerbes East, or online at www.facebook.com/IceCreamSplash. Adult tickets will increase to $15 after 12 p.m. on July 13.

The Cultural Arts Foundation was created in 2013 and supports the efforts of The Jefferson City Cultural Arts Commission in bringing cultural activities for all to the Jefferson City Community.
