Join us on Saturday, Nov 15, 2025 for our 8th AMA fall celebration: The Heart of Albany Festival.

There’s a lot going on at HeartFest!

The Heart of Albany Festival is pleased to announce that Pylon Reenactment Society will be our featured performer at the 8th annual festival on Nov 15. This is the first Albany performance for PRS, and you can learn more about the band HERE on the AMA News Blog and their website HERE.

In addition, Ballet Theatre South is returning with sneak-peek scenes from their December The Nutcracker performance, and the music duo of Jansen & Hannah Barnes will be on stage. We’ll also have the Monroe High School Band  performing in the morning.

Art demonstrations will take place throughout the day.

Bring your appetite and your Christmas list! The Vendor Village is back, and so is the delicious fare in the Food Truck Court. 

 Adult beverages are available from Noon until 5 PM. Adult drinks wristbands and tickets can be purchased at the HeartFest Store during the event.

Pylon Reenactment Society comprises Gregory Sanders, Vanessa Briscoe Hay, Kay Stanton, and Jason NeSmith. (Photo: Christy Bush, courtesy of Pylon Reenactment Society)
