ARTS, BEATS & EATS WAYS TO SAVE! - Courtesy of Flagstar Bank!
Yes, due to loss of our title sponsor, we are going to charge a $2 admission fee to attend Arts, Beats & Eats. This $2 will be shared with local non-profits, but it doesn't mean you won't find some great deals at this year's festival.

NOT one food or beverage item will be sold for more than $5 or eight tickets.  Those of you who bought food and beverage tickets in the past will appreciate your new buying power with them.  We sell tickets at sixteen tickets for $10, and not one item will cost more than eight tickets.
