Twelve years in, Tom Tom is a vital contributor to the vibrancy of Downtown, to the cohesion across our community, and to productive dialogues about our future.
Tom Tom, which means Tomorrow Tomorrow, hosts the annual Tom Tom Festival, which is a music, art, and ideas festival that annually gathers people to explore the future of our community, alongside a suite of year-round programs that extend the impact.
The end goal: bringing people together to create solutions and build a brighter tomorrow for our community.
If you recognize the value of the Tom Tom project, please join the Tomorrow Society today.
14 YEARS OF
"I had never seen a more diverse and jovial crowd. It was a true picture of what Charlottesville is all about"
—Juandiego Wade, Vice Mayor of Charlottesville (2022)
"This was my very first time attending a Tom Tom Festival. It was also a first time attending a event on the Downtown Mall in over 10 years. I’ve never really felt welcomed at events Downtown. This year the diversity of the Tom Tom Festival allowed me to see my community in a new light. I felt welcomed, I felt like I finally belonged to my community that I grew up in. I got to see old friends that I haven’t seen in years."
—Beverly M (2022)
"I had such a wonderful time meeting smart, reliable, creative collaborators…People told me the downtown block party was the “most diverse” space they’ve encountered in Charlottesville, and that it felt truly integrated and like the whole city came out. It was a blast!"
—Karolyn K (2023)
"My first year attending the Tom Tom festival. I was deeply rooted in how many people serve our community. I enjoyed the experiences and hope to be involved in upcoming events. Its a lifetime memory for me."

—Anonymous
“Charlottesville is already well known for a broad spectrum of traditional, progressive, conservative, moderate, and cutting edge activities and expressions; and TTFF adds diversity to the mix. The multi-pronged focus on historical inspiration with admiration, collaboration, inspiration and perspiration help promote successful development and implementation of the tremendous knowledge, skills, abilities, and dreams that our wonderful city has to offer.”
—Rick M (2016)
