A Celebration of Music and Community Spirit Featuring Partners 4 Hands Brewing Co. & Goshen Coffee Roasters Set to Release Special Brews to Raise Funds for Immigrants & Refugees
Get ready to groove at this year's Festival of Nations as St. Louis’ own Lisa Ramey takes center stage on August 24. The New York-based performer, known for her gritty soul and rock fusion, will headline the event on the Global Artist Stage in Tower Grove Park. Ramey, a standout finalist on NBC's "The Voice" under the mentorship of John Legend, promises a performance that captures her dynamic roots and passionate spirit.
Joining Ramey is an impressive lineup featuring Mai Lee, Mali Music, and Mannywellz, ensuring a day packed with diverse musical talents. This celebration of cultural unity through music and community engagement has long been a beloved tradition and this year is not to be missed!
Adding to the festivities, 4 Hands Brewing Co. has stepped up as the official beer vendor, collaborating with local artist Brock Seals on a vibrant new can design for their popular City Wide brew. Even better, a portion of the proceeds from every can sold during the festival will support the International Institute of St. Louis, a testament to the brewery's commitment to giving back to the community.
Coffee enthusiasts have something special to look forward to as well. Goshen Coffee Roasters, a dedicated community partner, is launching a special edition roast named Welcome Home. This unique blend, featuring coffees from Kenya, India, and Mexico, will be available for tasting and purchase at the festival on August 24 and 25. Proceeds from this blend will also benefit the International Institute, further supporting programs that aid immigrants and refugees.
The Festival of Nations not only showcases world-class talent but also underscores the power of community collaboration and support. Whether you're a fan of soulful music, craft beer, or artisanal coffee, this festival offers a little something for everyone, all while contributing to a noble cause.
