Alongside its variety of musical offerings, the event, founded by Better Than Ezra singer and Franklin residents Kevin Griffin, W. Brandt Wood and Michael Whelan, seeks to support all kinds of local creators.
Throughout the weekend, crowds enjoyed eats and treats at the Farm-to-Turntable Food Truck Park and wet their whistles in the Craft Beer Hall. In between shows, attendees shopped wares from 40 local artisans and retailers including jewelry, hats, clothing, home decor and more in Makers Village.
