2013 Brings Beer, Wine, Food and Good Times Back to Dickey-Stephens Park

The Arthritis Foundation is bringing the 16th Annual Food & Foam Fest back to Dickey-Stephens Park this year with the event taking place Saturday, April 26, from 6 to 9 p.m. presented by Stryker. 
Food & Foam Fest is a beer festival offering samples of over 300 different kinds of beer, wine and cuisine from local restaurateurs with live music. Food & Foam Fest raises awareness of America's leading cause of disability, while raising much needed funds for research, health education and government advocacy to improve the lives of people with arthritis. Proceeds from the event are used for arthritis research, education and local programs. The Arthritis Foundation is committed to raising awareness and reducing the unacceptable impact of arthritis, which strikes one in every five adults and 300,000 children, and is the nation’s leading cause of disability. In Arkansas alone, more than 653,000 adults and nearly 2,700 children have a form of arthritis. The Arthritis Foundation leads efforts to reduce the impact of arthritis by investing in research that is giving back mobility to countless patients, and providing empowering programs and support for adults, children and caregivers. 
Tickets are $40 per person or $65 for a VIP pass. Tickets can be purchased online at www.foamfest.org, or for more information call the Arthritis Foundation office at 501-664-4591.
