festival artists. They are being invited to create pieces detailing their
own personal stance on the subject of the Dally and Detroit itself.

Excerpt:
What began as an inner city art fair in 1977 evolved into a performing arts festival when it was moved to its present alley and renamed in 1982 to “Dally in the Alley,” the title of a medieval drinking song. Great musical talent, equally great beer and a remarkable string of fabulous September weather has indelibly marked the alley between Hancock and Forest in Detroit’s Midtown as the site as one of the best one-day festivals in the Midwest.
