This year's
Arts, Beats and Eats festival in downtown Pontiac will be
bigger and better than ever. Yes, the festival lost its main
sponsor, Chrysler, since the automaker is struggling to make
a profit. The festival will offer free sponsorships to the
Big Three automakers - GM, Ford and Chrysler. A $2 admission
fee will be charged on Saturday, Sunday and on Labor Day Monday.
If you want to get in free, go on Friday before 6:30 p.m.
Arts,
Beats & Eats plays host to a hot line-up of national and
local musical acts on Labor Day weekend, August 29 through
September 1, 2008. In its eleventh year, Chrysler Arts, Beats
& Eats promises the “beats” will reflect the
true heart of the metro Detroit area with sounds from nearly
every musical genre.
