GREEN BAY, WT (WTAQ) – If you’re looking for something fun to do in the Green Bay area this summer, you won’t have to look very hard.
Community leaders gathered in Veterans Park Tuesday morning to announce over 160 events for the public to enjoy.
Downtown Green Bay Inc. Executive Director Jeff Mirkes says there’s a lot to look forward to this year.
“Markets, concerts events, water shows, tall ships; it’s just another big summer of activities.”
There are two new events that are hoping to draw people to the city.
“We have a fun run, a 5K in August and an art event, an art experience in September,” says Mirkes.
That new art event, called “Catalyst” will be held Saturday, September 10th in the Watermark building.
Artist Matt Bero helped create and plan the event.
“It’s a multi-sensory approach to this creative experience including paintings, murals, sculptures, performance art, including dance, also the creative aspect of food and drinks.”
Mirkes says the city hopes to attract hundreds of thousands of people throughout the season with these fun events.
You can pick-up the 2016 “Summer in the City” events guide at downtown employers and coffee shops or at www.dowtowngreenbay.com.
