SMYRNA, TENN. — Get ready for an exciting celebration of classic cars, music, entertainment and community spirit as Carpe Artista brings the Great American Road Rally Finale Party to Crusader Auto Works in Smyrna, the very place where this remarkable cross-country adventure began.

After traveling more than 2,000 miles along America’s legendary Mother Road, historic Route 66, the Great American Road Rally is coming full circle with a celebration that promises to bring together car enthusiasts, celebrity drivers, local families and supporters of the arts.

The event will feature a car show, live music, food trucks, a cash bar, silent auction and door prizes. Guests will also have an opportunity to meet some of the celebrity drivers who participated in the Great American Road Rally.

More Than a Car Show — A Celebration With a Purpose

While the Great American Road Rally celebrated America’s love affair with automobiles and the open road, the journey also carried an important message about the value of arts, creativity and community.

Throughout the summer, Carpe Artista’s story traveled alongside the rally, helping bring attention to the organization’s mission of developing creative talent and supporting opportunities in the arts.

Now, organizers are inviting the community to help continue that journey.

The finale party will raise funds to support Carpe Artista’s ongoing work and future initiatives, helping the organization continue making a difference in the lives of young people and aspiring artists.
