I've been going to the Arts Beats & Eats festival in Pontiac since it's inception. It is a great time for the whole family and I love how it gives Pontiac a chance to show itself off. I've bought several pieces of art over the years and look forward to seeing the custom jewelers each year! The food vendors are really outstanding and they have both national and local musical talent--all varieties. The only drawback is how popular it has become. The first few years you could wander at your leisure and nibble the food, now the crowds tend to push you from area to area. That won't stop me from going again. This year Fisher-Price is having a display for kids in celebration of their 75th anniversary. We can't miss that!
