Alley Islands is a community street festival organized by Blockfort Gallery and Studios. Located in the Discovery District, the festival seeks to welcome people of all ages for a day of music, food, art and fun. This year, four stages surrounded by a multitude of new and permanent murals with over 20 performers, ranging from live music, to dance, comedy, and storytelling span the day. Artists, crafters, and small business artisans line the streets, capped by food trucks and local breweries. Inside the neighborhood buildings, guests are welcome to visit gallery spaces, artist studios, fashion labs, classrooms, event spaces and a full service restaurant. The whole day is sprinkled with street performers, magicians, circus performances, and visual experiences.
Transportation will be provided. We will leave the CRC at 11:30. Please pack a lunch or bring money to buy lunch at the food trucks. There will be plenty of walking, so please also wear shoes that are comfortable to walk in and weather appropriate clothes.
