A Call to Artists…and BBQ fans!

Have a hankering for all-day barbecue, beer and bands?

Then make sure you head to historic downtown Lincoln for Ribfest on September 12.

Hosted by the Lincoln Arts and Culture Foundation, the event is also a Call to Artists who wish to showcase and sell their work. The booth fee is $40. There will also be a beer garden and car show.

And if you can’t make that date, you can still get barbecue and hear six popular bands from northern and southern California at the first Day on the Green. Boogie to bands like One Drop Redemption (Bob Marley tribute band), Sacred Fire (Santana tribute band), Tempus Fury ('80s and '90s rock), Private Criminals (alternative rock), Cold Sweat (classic rock) and Highway 49 (Blues).

"We will have a barbecue, but families who want to bring picnic baskets with their own food are welcome to do so,” said Claudia Renati, Lincoln Arts Executive Director. “We hope that everyone will come out and support it. If they do, it could become another of our annual events.”
