The East Atlanta Strut combines a parade, street festival with live music and artists markets and a "porchfest" to show off the entire neighborhood, which is rich with artists, musicians and fun-loving neighbors. Signup to volunteer https://signup.com/go/LWBaEEG
East Atlanta also has a thriving business district, with restaurants, bars and shops eager to Strut their stuff and show off more local music and art. The Strut aims to highlight the talents of the whole neighborhood.
We turn our attention to activities you won’t find at other festivals, including the Leaf Blower Madness Tournament, Llama Poop Bingo and the Strut Your Bake rum dessert bakeoff.
The Strut puts 100 percent of its profits back into the community. More than $100,000 has been donated in just the last few years - to programs that do outreach to the unhoused, groups that feed people, organizations that help keep our longtime neighbors in their homes, our local fire station and library, pet rescue groups, child mentoring groups, local schools, arts organizations, and neighborhood beautification projects. The focus is on small nonprofits in ZIP 30316 that don’t have a huge staff of grant writers and paid managers. If you’d like to help us do this work, please contact info@eastalantastrut.com

Now in its 22nd year, the East Atlanta Strut is a community organized, one-day festival, featuring music, art and events to raise money for neighborhood charities, organizations and support local businesses. Planning for this festival happens year round and everything is done entirely by volunteers. Of course, we love to show off East Atlanta--the hottest in-town neighborhood in Atlanta with the best places to eat, drink, shop, and play.
The East Atlanta strut focuses its contributions to the community by providing community services, and supporting community members, businesses and projects. From the money raised at the Strut last year, EACA gave out $40,000 to local charities and organizations such as public schools, firemen, etc.
