The sixth Krasl Art Center Concours on the Bluff in St. Joseph Lake Bluff Park across the street from the Krasl Art Center, is shaping up to be the most exciting yet, according to Concours Chairman, Dar Davis. Over 80 classic cars, commercial vehicles and motorcycles, built between 1905 and 1975, will be on display.  All are beautifully restored and several are extremely rare and unusual. Vehicles displayed will be complemented by three "pass in review" events narrated by F. Edward Lucas II, "The Voice of Meadow Brook."

There will be a modest entrance fee for people attending the Concours.

The Concours exhibit opens at 10 am, with Pass In Reviews at noon, 1:30 pm and 3 pm. All entries will be examined by teams of experienced judges and a total of 13 hand-blown glass trophies, including Best of Show and People's Choice, will be presented following the final Pass In Review. The Concours is a fundraising activity for the Krasl Art Center.
