Detroit’s Largest FREE Festival to Feature Over 150 Artists and 35 Bands Plus Fashion and Film
on August 28 & 29, 2010
The People’s Arts Festival (PAF), the largest free arts and music festival in the City of Detroit, will celebrate its Fourth Anniversary this year with an expanded roster of artists, performers, filmmakers and musicians on Saturday August 28 and Sunday August 29, 2010. Held at the Russell Industrial Center (1600 Clay Avenue in Detroit – off the I-75 Clay exit) from 11 a.m. to Midnight on Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday. This event is family friendly, and all ages are encouraged to attend.
With a focus on Detroit talent, over 150 artists will display and sell their original works of photography, jewelry, illustration, sculpture, painting, mixed media and more on the Russell Industrial Center grounds. This non-curated, bohemian-style art exhibit willshowcase established and emerging artists, many whom demonstrate a uniquely Detroit perspective in their work.
This year’s PAF also includes an expanded film area in the “Screening Room (located on the first floor of Building One in the Russell Industrial Center)” sponsored by Michigan Movie Magazine and Above the Line Detroit. With almost-hourly film screenings throughout the weekend, in addition to a host of film-related vendors, this will be an opportunity for auteurs and audiences to interact, network and gain honest feedback about their work. Also adding to the festivities is Ann Arbor’s Shei Magazine, who will host a homegrown designer fashion show on Saturday.
With a diverse lineup of over 35 local musical acts on two stages throughout the weekend, festival-goers will be treated to everything from the eclectic to the electric. Some of audio highlights include Blockhead - a Devo tribute band, award-winning hip-hop artists Street Justice, electro fetish rockers Crud, experimental percussionist Juice, rockabilly swingers The Twistin’ Tarantulas, and indie angster Troy Gregory.
Avant-garde performing artist Satori Circus, punk puppeteers The Gepetto Files, and Detroit Flyhouse aerialists will also provide thrilling live entertainment during this fun- filled weekend.
The PAF will also feature a wide variety of food & drink vendors, including Bluewater BBQ, Locos (Mexican), slider burgers from Dino’s Lounge, as well as vegan and Polish cuisine. Drink specials include offerings from Cuatro Cirios Tequila, Zumba Margarita Mix, Barefoot Wine, Absolut Vodka, Bud Light, Jagermeister and Red Bull.
The People’s Arts Festival is sponsored by 89x, 93.9 The River, Real Detroit Weekly, Comcast, Michigan Movie Magazine, Above the Line, Cuatro Cirios Tequila, Zumba, Barefoot Wine, On the Rocks Detroit, Absolut Vodka, Red Bull, Bud Light, Nikki’s Pizza and Locos.
