RADish FEST
Twelve hours of live music, painting, makers & mischief at The Grey Eagle. By locals, for locals.
This festival is going to be pretty rad’ish.
We believe in the magic of bringing art and music together into one space and blending both to create new experiences and memories. For one day, musicians and artists take over and transform every inch of the Grey Eagle into an immersive, vibrant community gathering — local bands, live painters, comedians, interactive art exhibits, local celebrity DJs, and things we can’t even tell you about yet, because we don’t want to spoil the surprises to come.
