Welcome to the fourth installment of Featured Rise Up Attractions! Our featured artist today, Megan Wolz, will be sure to catch the eye of all at the festival. Megan, from St. Charles, MO, specializes in drawing and pastels. For the most part, her tools of choice are the simple and classic paper and pencil. With these tools, she uses “love and imagination” to create her captivating and moving drawings. Also dabbling in photography at times, Megan captures the beauty of the natural world in her still-lives and portraits. She believes in the idea of making your dreams into a reality through your passion, and this is evident in her artwork.
If you like sour beer, make sure to stop by the Alpha Brewing Company booth! Alpha Brewing Company is a St. Louis Brewery located downtown on Washington Avenue, and a favorite place to stop by and have a brew by St. Louis locals. Their barrel aged beers are loved by all, and more specifically their unique sour beers, which will be served at the festival. If you are a beer drinker and enjoy branching out- grab a sour beer from the Alpha Brewing Company truck!
