Midsummer Festival of the Arts, July 17, 2021.
Midsummer Festival of the Arts—a free, family-friendly blend of art, music, food, and fun—returns to downtown Sheboygan on Saturday and Sunday, July 16 and 17.
One hundred juried artist booths will surround the John Michael Kohler Arts Center and feature paintings, photographs, furniture, jewelry, ceramics, glass, textiles, and much more. However, it’s not only the artists’ offerings that draw the crowds.
Music lovers will enjoy four free concerts. Saturday’s performances feature Cousin Curtiss at 11:30 a.m. and Bandits on the Run at 2 p.m. Sunday brings Copper Box to the stage at 11:30 a.m. and Doctor Nativo at 2 p.m.
All ages can create their own make-it-take-it souvenir in the Workshop Tent and make their mark on a collaborative work of art in the Community Arts Tent.
Foodies will discover an extensive lineup of food trucks including JMKAC’s whimsical Culinary Art Car.
Inside the Arts Center, there are eight galleries to explore. Five “Ways of Being” themed exhibitions invite viewers to ask, “What if we look to art to reshape our world?”
Admission: free
Location: 608 New York Ave., Sheboygan
Hours: Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
