Pabst Brewery has come home and, to celebrate, the company will kick off the summer music season with a grand opening street festival.

The brewery will host the festival on Juneau Avenue between 10th St. and 11th St., and the adjoining area of 11th St., and will feature outdoor performances from a variety of leading local bands.

Local music lovers will fall head over heels for the lineup, which includes headliner Ish DARR. You've seen his name all over town, as he was recently named a grounds stage headliner at Summerfest and will be on movie screens across the country in Sony Pictures' upcoming movie "White Boy Rick," starring Matthew McConaughey.

The rest of the daylong party includes Riverwest hip-hop group New Age Narcissism - NAN, featuring Lex Allen, Siren and Lorde Freddee, as well as Wisconsin native Hugh Masterson of Hugh Bob & The Hustle, Madison-based pop punk band MASKED INTRUDER, alternative soul rocker Abby Jeanne and 12-piece funk group D'Amato.

Visitors can take in "Live Paintings" from visual artists in a Pabst Open-Air Art Gallery, presented by Canvas, and also get onsite commemorative swag, as local designers will offer one-time-only Pabst Milwaukee Brewery T-shirts. Local designers Milwaukeehome, MODA3, Orchard Street Pressand Wiskullsin will contribute threads, with the printing efforts done byRedwall Screen Printing.

Along with all of the above you can partake in games, activities and food that will also be offered, along with Pabst Milwaukee Brewery beer. Admission is free and is family friendly – though beer drinkers will, of course, have to be 21 to partake.

Sponsors of the party include OnMilwaukee, Shepherd Express, 88Nine RadioMilwaukee, Milwaukee Record, and Boxed Water is Better.

Price: FREE , family-friendly
