Milwaukee's not called the "city of festivals" for nothing -- they run all summer and, this year, they're stretching well into fall with the introduction of the East Side's newest festival, East Side Under Foot, Oct. 13-14.

The festival coincides with the last weekend of the East Side Open Market and includes cooking classes by Whole Foods, street musicians and performers, pumpkin carving, art demonstrations, and children's activities galore.

And in true Brew City style, there'll be a tented Oktoberfest celebration Friday and Saturday until midnight.

Stay tuned for a full article about East Side Under Foot.
