Sterlingfest Art & Music Fair

From Sterlingfest Art & Music Fair Website:

Renowned as one of Michigans best-run and best-attended festivals, (including earning the Detroit News Michigans BEST Summer Festival title), Sterlingfests combination of arts & crafts, music and food means three days of sun-drenched, summertime fun every year. Now in its 34th year, Sterlingfest mixes the tradition of an arts & crafts fair with a jazz and blues stage, a SudsnSounds stage, Kidzfest childrens activities and entertainment stage, a family midway, local restaurateurs and a main concert stage.

Visitors to the arts & crafts show browse and purchase exquisite sculptures, watercolor paintings, striking photographs and many other unique hand-crafted items offered by juried exhibitors. The Sterlingfest Art & Music Fair is set in a street fair-like setting at the heart of Sterling Heights, Michigan the picturesque City Center campus. Artists show and sell their work with a backdrop of lively music from the jazz and blues stage. Visitors to the arts & crafts fair stroll past the citys historic Upton House, by a water lily studded fountain and along the Sterling Heights sculpture walk, featuring the citys public art along with a SterlingScapes exhibit of large-scale outdoor sculptures from cutting-edge Michigan artists.

The 2014 Sterlingfest schedule of events features a variety of great music to keep visitors entertained, including jazz, blues, folk and Top 40 entertainment. Plus, free fun activities for the kids allow mom and dad to take their time in the arts & crafts fair. Attractions, such as evening concerts, promise to draw upwards of 120,000 people from throughout metropolitan Detroit to the Sterlingfest Art & Music Fair.
