Sidewalk Festival of Performing Arts

The intersection of Lahser and Grand River undergoes transformation this Aug 5th and 6th   during the 4th Annual Sidewalk Festival of Performing Arts. The Old Reford and Brightmoor neighborhoods get a dose of live and interactive art throughout the 2-day event. Ryan Myers Johnson is Artistic Director and Founder of the festival. She tells WDET’s Amy Miller that she organized the one in 2012 to fill a need for innovative and place-based arts on Detroit’s northwest side.
