My Code

public class EnumMultipleSelectionFactory<TEnum> : ISelectionFactory
{
    public IEnumerable<ISelectItem> GetSelections(
            ExtendedMetadata metadata)
    {
        var values = Enum.GetValues(typeof(TEnum));
        List<ISelectItem> items = new List<ISelectItem>();
        foreach (var value in values)
        {
            items.Add(new SelectItem { Text = GetValueName(value), Value = value.ToString() });
        }
                return items;
    }

    private string GetValueName(object value)
    {
        var staticName = Enum.GetName(typeof(TEnum), value);

        string localizationPath = string.Format(
            "/property/enum/{0}/{1}",
            typeof(TEnum).Name.ToLowerInvariant(),
            staticName.ToLowerInvariant());

        string localizedName;
        if (LocalizationService.Current.TryGetString(
            localizationPath,
            out localizedName))
        {
            return localizedName;
        }

        return staticName;
    }
}



public class EventItemPage : SitePageData
{
    public enum EventCategoryValues
    {
        Arts,
        Business,
        Community,
        Festivals,
        Kids,
        Recreation,
        Sports
    }

    [Display(
        GroupName = SystemTabNames.Content,
        Order = 1030)]
    [SelectMany(SelectionFactoryType = typeof(EnumMultipleSelectionFactory<EventCategoryValues>))]
    public virtual string EventCategories { get; set; }
