#SpokaneStoke: A Weekend of epic proportions
This weekend is jam-packed. There's a lot going on in the area, and we wanted to fill you in so that you can take full advantage of all of the opportunities presented to us here in the inland Northwest. Here's a roundup of the most popular events going on around the area this weekend.
Volume Music Festival. The Inlander's music festival grows again this year, with eight venues and 80 bands. More shows than ever will be all-ages, and with acts like Summer in Siberia, Terrible Buttons, and Water Monster, it's sure to be an exciting event. Wristbands are just $17, and they get you into every show tonight and tomorrow. Even cooler, for the first time ever, there'll be a discussion panel on the State of the Spokane Music Scene.

ArtFest. Sponsored by the Inland Northwest Museum of Arts & Culture, ArtFest is Spokane's major juried art festival. Brilliant paintings, stunning sculptures, and excellent photography will all be showcased, among other work. The event runs from 12p-10p today, 10a-10p tomorrow, and 10a-5p Sunday in Browne's Addition. It's free (including parking at the MAC garage, if that's an issue for you, although we encourage you to utilize transit if possible), and there will be great music. For more information, click here.
SkyFest. After several years, SkyFest returns to Fairchild Air Force Base after a budget cut- and sequester-induced hiatus. The air show and vendor fair will be open Saturday and Sunday from 9a-6p, and will include all of the usual events. More information available here.
Spo-Can. The Elk's second-annual craft canned beer festival will take place Saturday and Sunday in Browne's Addition. Over 50 canned beers will be showcased, and four bands will be performing. More information by clicking here.
