2023 Pensole Lewis Mural by Micah Shumake

Pensole Lewis Mural Presented by Kroger

This year’s Arts, Beats & Eats festival is proud to present an enriching blend of diverse art and cultural elements, once again highlighted by a special collaboration with Pensole Lewis College of Business & Design, the nation’s first Historically Black College/University focused on design. Emphasizing themes of culture, diversity, inclusion and awareness, three talented students from Pensole Lewis College have been invited to develop and design a mural that will be created live and showcased at the festival. This inspiring initiative, made possible through a generous partnership with Kroger, will bring the mural theme of Arts, Beats & Eats to life, celebrating the rich tapestry of our community and the vibrant creativity of its young artists.
