SUMMER JAM WESTGATE

A grassroots arts and music celebration, leaving permanent, public art in our wake.

 

 

Summer Jam Westgate is a grassroots, free, music and art festival held annually in Westgate Park. Our goal is to bring joy, music and art to the Hilltop. There's live, local bands, local art and artisans, face painting for children, a children's art zone and a variety of local food trucks. The theme this year is "Summer Jam and the Fabulous Food Garden". Expect lots of family fun and kid - friendly activities inspired by healthy eating. Check out "On the Wings of Change", a 14 foot, stainless steel monarch butterfly. This is the very first public art sculpture on the Hilltop and Summer Jam was proud to install it in 2015. In 2015, Summer Jam was awarded with the Conservation Stewardship award and Neighborhood Best Practices Video award.     http://www.summerjamwestgate.org/
