Tapped – Downtown Midland’s Craft Beer Festival

Ace Hardware & Sports is proud to present Tapped. Brewers from all over Michigan will be coming to downtown Midland for a craft beer celebration on Saturday, June 20th. In addition to sampling their stouts, ales, and lagers, there will me a Maker’s Market outside the beer tent featuring artisans, musicians, & food. After the tent closes, 5 downtown pubs will be hosting tap takeovers. Hop from bar to bar tasting the very best of Michigan brews.

Maker’s Market

Artisans, musicians, unique food & more. Take some time to pursue stand after stand of finely crafted wares from 11am until 4pm. Find everything from clothing to jewelry & even furniture. Here are a few samples of vendors you will find:

Chance Pop-Up Boutique – Located in Downtown Midland, Chance Pop-Up Boutique will be sharing their “vintage, botanical things, local creations & socially conscious items” at the Maker’s Market on Main Street. The boutique was started by a 2013 Midland High graduate who wants her customers to “feel inspired to be a part of a bigger cause.”

Smitten Designs Studio – When New Orleans native Ivette Dixon visited Traverse City in 2010, she was taken aback by the breathtaking beauty of the Great Lakes State. In 2013, she opened up a design studio that specializes in Michigan-inspired jewelry, apparel, and crafts. You can learn more about them at their website, & visit their stand at the Maker’s Market at Tapped.
