Franks + Dranks brings crowd to the museum for hot dogs, music and fun

More than 100 guests attended Franks + Dranks, Piedmont Arts' annual summer cookout and concert on Friday, July 18.

Due to the threat of inclement weather, the event was moved from the Art Garden to Piedmont Arts, but that didn't dampen the fun. Guests enjoyed a night of country, Americana and soul music by Jake Earles and a meal of hot dogs and fixings prepared by Shane Pinkston and Will Gravely.

Thanks to event sponsor Burton & Company, Food Lion on Greensboro Road and, of course, all-star chefs Shane and Will for cooking up the perfect franks.
