For the second year in a row, White Mystery booked and produced two stages and 30 bands for the 3-day Chicago street festival, Glenwood Avenue Arts Fest. In addition to curating and directing the acts, including diverse musical genres and dance troupes in conjunction with the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events “Year of Chicago Dance,” we also served as the creative force behind all of the digital and print media assets. Miss Alex White & Francis White also managed the social media for the event and grew the brand audience.

For two decades, The Glenwood Avenue Arts Fest (GAAF) has presented a free, weekend-long arts festival featuring 120+ artists, open studios, and live entertainment on two outdoor stages.  This year, Miss Alex White & Francis White are booking all 32 bands for the Chicago-based street festival.

The 20th annual Fest will take place the weekend of August 20-22, 2021.
