The very first Lazy Daze was organized in 1976 by Cary artist Jerry Miller. Miller had been traveling around to other local street fairs and thought Cary should have one too. This year, the Town estimates that 50,000 people attend the 34th Annual Lazy Daze Arts & Crafts Festival on Saturday, August 28, 2010 from 9 a.m.- 5 p.m. In all likelihood, Jerry will be there.
