It’s Finally Here! Oktoberfest at Art Walk is Tomorrow!

Screen Shot 2016-10-04 at 10.40.01 AM
Tomorrow, October 5, we will be celebrating the 4th Annual Oktoberfest at Art Walk, our biggest Art Walk of the year! Hosted by Curtis Dvorak, Oktoberfest will include a polka band, contests, a carnival zone, a kids zone and of course, German beer and the traditional tapping of the keg! Don’t forget to check out the Front Porch at The Landing and all of the other 60+ venues participating this month. We’re also celebrating the one year anniversary of Art Walk After Dark, so continue the party in The Elbow!

Remember, Art Walk is rain or shine, so we’ll see you tomorrow!
