Highland Square's annual PorchRokr Music and Art Festival transforms the verandas of one of Akron's most historic and eclectic neighborhoods into one-day art studios and concert venues. Thousands of locals and out-of-towners rock out to some 130 diverse musicians and artists, using both area residences and business establishments as their personal stage. The festival rotates each year among four sections of Highland Square to encourage spontaneous interaction among all its neighbors. PorchRokr is Saturday, August 20, 2022. The PorchRokr 5K starts the day off in style!

This was such a fun 5K in Highland Square that kicks off PorchRokr. I loved the shirts and medals, which had the old Highland Theater as part of their design.
