Please join us on Saturday, October 20th, between 11 am – 8 pm, with an After Hours event from 8 pm – 10 pm, and Historic Commercial Building and Adaptive Reuse tours from 8 am – 1 pm. The Festival will be a celebration of the vibrant culture, art, history, and adaptive re-use of the Lower Grand Avenue Arts and Small Business District and adjoining neighborhoods.

Small businesses and art spaces along this unique and historic travel corridor will host tours of vintage commercial buildings and interesting adaptive re-use projects; create art exhibits; sponsor performances and music; and provide other special activities that highlight the history of this distinctive area of downtown.

Most spaces are within easy walking distance of each other, and easily accessible by bicycle – or hop a free pedi-cab to explore the diverse Lower Grand Avenue community. Musicians will be set up at various venues and along the street throughout the afternoon and evening. Many art studios, galleries, and small businesses will be hosting special exhibits and performances throughout the afternoon and evening. Visitors can wander among food trucks, chalk drawings, and other unexpected pleasures. World Class Thugs kick it off at noon in front of Bragg's Pie Factory..
