Engage with creatives in the heart of the South Salt Lake's Creative Industries Zone as you shop, eat, dance and have fun with our art community and neighbor's creative side.

Festival participants get to vote on their favorite barrel/keg, with the People's Choice vote winner receiving a cash prize.
