Tuesday marks the opening day of the 2016 Arts Festival at Munson Williams in Utica.
This year's Sidewalk Arts Show features more than 200 works, including paintings, drawings, sculptures and photography all done by local artists.
Just in time for Boilermaker weekend, 25 more pole banners inviting the public to "Get to Know a New Downtown" will be displayed on Genesee Street in Utica.
