Marion is a "vintage uptown" community and part of the Cedar Rapids metro area, in the heart of a State-designated Cultural and Entertainment District. The festival is the only event of its kind and quality in Eastern Iowa!

Our show is one-day, intimate, and purposeful, with the mission to be an event through which you can thrive. We are an established yearly staple for many community members. Thank you for making the art! It's our privilege to gather an audience.
