Details

The 27th Art & Soul festival celebrates Black culture and creativity in Indianapolis. The festival's final show of 2023 kicks off with a Rob Dixon-led tribute to Indianapolis native Wes Montgomery, the late, legendary jazz guitarist who would have turned 100 in March, and celebrates the emerging talents of the four 2023 Art & Soul Featured Artists.

In between, catch performances by a dozen local musical artists, from Damon Karl (who has opened for Babyface and Ashante) to Staci McCrackin (lead singer of The Flying Toasters and a backup singer in Jim Irsay’s all-star band).

General admission is free, but for $15, you can get a "Next Level" experience on the balcony, with special seating, a dance floor, a cash bar, complimentary food, and a 360 red carpet photo booth.
