This year the Downtown Festival & Art Show is adding a Saturday evening arts panel happy hour cocktail event for arts lovers and visiting artists at the beautiful art deco Baby J's jazz bar; moving our 50 community booth nonprofit sponsors to the bricks of the Bo Diddley Plaza; and shifting our non-competitive arts market artists to the festival's brick southern streets near the Hippodrome. Like last year, we are once again including a festival beer garden, an emerging artist program, an artist hospitality room in the second floor conference room of the Hyatt, and Friday night drive-up load-in.
