2025 Festival Overview

We look forward to seeing YOU at Edgewood Church in East Lansing for our 40th Annual Festival! 

We’re happy to once again bring you a weekend full of community and inspiration. Stay tuned for more activities celebrating our 40th Year! But for now, highlights include:

An Artist Market full of vibrant color and flavor, bringing you the work of regional women artists.

Two Night Stage performances, featuring Michigan’s Super Group THE REBEL EVES on Friday and Detroit’s renowned all-female jazz band, Straight Ahead closing out the festival on Saturday evening. 

The Rebel Eves Straight Ahead

A full afternoon of Day Stage performances, featuring singer-songwriters, multi-instrumentalist groups and choral music.

Back by popular demand! LESBO BINGO! Come for the comedy and the cat sculpture prize you never knew you needed on Saturday. Free to play!

An online auction and silent auction at the festival.  An eclectic mix of items provided by local businesses and artists, winning bids support the financial stability of Women in the Arts.

All of this in a warm venue where, as you fill your soul with beauty, you can fill your belly with meals and treats at the Sistrum Café.

The Friday and Saturday Night Stage performances require tickets, but all other events/activities are free to the public.  You can support the work of this event by participating in online and silent auctions or offering a voluntary donation.
