John Ball Park was the venue and craft beers were the main course Saturday. The fourth annual Summer Craft Beer Festival poured, played, entertained and fed hundreds from across Grand Rapids, West Michigan and beyond on a summery afternoon and early evening with sunshine and temperatures creeping into the low 80s.

The Amway Family Fireworks today at Ah-Nab-Awen Park in Grand Rapids is more than just fireworks celebrating the Independence Day holiday weekend. It's music, entertainment, food, and fun, while embracing family, freedom and community.

Long before ArtPrize, THE arts festival in Grand Rapids was just Festival. Officially, it's the 45th Festival of the Arts, held in downtown Grand Rapids on a few city streets and at Calder Plaza.

Its going to be a great Festival weekend! The weather night hold and its supposed to be in the 70′s! And when the weather is warm and the windows are down crank up the sound track of your summer! An “I Love the 80′s Weekend!” Brought to you by The Williams Outlet! "Dont pay a penny more"

And WFGR will be downtown and broadcasting on Saturday! Festival of the Arts (or Festival, as the locals call it--blend in if you are from out of town or new to the area--you can thank me later) starts on Friday with food and local art and food and music and some food and kids and did I mention the food? Here's all you need to know to be ready for the start of the Summer Festival season in West Mi

And the first "Big" summer event is in the books! Festival off the Arts 2011 wrapped up Sunday afternoon in Downtown, and quite possible 740 million people were in attendance. OK, maybe not quite 740 million, but it was alot!

It's one of the biggest weekends in Downtown Grand Rapids...Festival Weekend! All the art, the music and entertainment, and the FOOD! Don't hold me to this, but there seems to be about 27,000 food vendors downtown at Festival. OK really there's 33 (wow..only 33? I swear it's WAY more than that!)

Just Got back from a press conference for the Grand Rapids Festival of the Arts...  We should be really proud to have such a cool festival right here in our own hometown. This year looks to be the biggest ever. They've exapanded the Food area a ton, plus don't forget all the great music around too...
