Nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains sits the Little Cities of Black Diamond, a collection of historic coal mining communities in Southeast Ohio. The rich cultural and natural histories of this area are a testament to the human spirit and resiliency that continues to define the Southeast Ohio hill country.
In celebration of this history, Hocking College is proud to announce the 2nd annual Black Diamond Music and Arts Festival to be held on the College’s main campus in Nelsonville, Ohio on June 9th and 10th, 2022. Connected to the region’s rich country roots, the Black Diamond Music and Arts Festival will celebrate a contemporary variety of country artists and musicians including headliners, Josh Turner & Ashley McBryde, Lindsay Ell, Chase Wright, HunterGirl, and Tyler Braden. The two-day music and arts festival will feature three stages, a variety of food and beverage vendors, arts and crafts vendors and demonstrations, and accommodations for guests that include camping and lodging.
