Alley Islands is a community street festival organized by Blockfort Gallery and Studios. Located in the Discovery District of Downtown Columbus, the festival seeks to welcome people of all ages for a day of music, food, art and fun. Two stages, surrounded by a multitude of new murals, with over 20 performers, ranging from live music, to poetry, comedy, and storytelling span the day. Artists, crafters, and small business artisans line the streets, capped by food trucks and local breweries. Inside, guests are welcome to visit the three gallery spaces and a variety of artist studios. The whole day is sprinkled with street performers, magicians, circus performances, and visual experiences.
