Incorporated in 1978, the Ann Arbor Summer Festival, founded by Eugene Power -- presented its first full season of events in 1984. This annual 3 1/2 week long performing arts festival incorporates two concurrent activities: main stage ticketed presentations of music, dance and theatre by nationally and internationally known artists inside the Power Center for the Performing Arts and Hill Auditorium and a free, outdoor concert and film series called "Top of the Park." All activities take place on the University of Michigan campus in Ann Arbor.
