Arts, Beats and Eats is a festival that takes place in Royal
Oak from August 31st – September 3rd.
It is another great way to bring the community together to celebrate our love
of music, art and of course, great food. This will be the 15th
annual event for downtown Royal Oak.
The event is held for celebrators of all ages. The young and the old are
encouraged to come out to show their support of the city, while exploring new
insight to the love of art, music and food.
Ten stages will hold over 200 performers for the four day
event. It’s an awesome way to support local artists, and find some new music to
love. Admission bands for the weekend only cost $3.00, so it is easy to bring
the whole family for the weekend, or even for a day.
Along with great music, the streets are lined with amazing
art work and artists proud to show off their talents. 135 artists will line the
streets with ceramics, digital art, drawing/pastels, fabric/fiber/leather,
graphics/printmaking, jewelry, metal, mixed media 2-D and 3-D, painting,
photography, sculpture and wood pieces. Supporting the artists of the Detroit
area helps them become recognized, and also makes for an exciting weekend for
visitors.
65 booths will be set up with all different types of food
venders. This means there is something everyone will love. Adults will be able
to explore different types of food they have never tried before, while children
will be satisfied with familiar eats from the surrounding community. This is a
great way to find new businesses in the area to support.
Arts, Beats and Eats is a great way to present the community
with music they may have never heard before. It also gives local restaurants
the opportunity to share their love of food and fine dining with the locals and
visitors. You may find a new favorite place to eat, a new favorite artist, or
your new favorite song! I hope to see you there!
For anyone interested in attending, the event hours are
listed below. As you can see, the festival goes from morning until night, so if
you only have a couple hours to spend, there will be plenty of time in the four
days to make it out and show your support.
