Festival 2008 - I'm In!

I just received word on Friday that I was accepted to have a sales booth again in the Art Sales Tent at Festival of the Arts 2008.

Festival is the largest all-volunteer arts event in the nation!
It's a three-day arts celebration, held the first full weekend in June in downtown Grand Rapids.

It encompasses almost all of downtown Grand Rapids with six performance stages; lots and lots of food booths offering ethnic delights of all kinds; singers, dancers, thespians, visual artists, and performers from all over West Michigan; more than 20,000 hard-working volunteers; and over half a million people in attendance.

Visit the Festival website for more information

Art Tents on Calder Plaza - June 6, 7 & 8

- Friday Noon - 9 pm
- Saturday 10 am - 9 pm
- Sunday 10 am - 5 pm

West Michigan's finest artists and craftspeople sell their wares, including pottery, jewelry, folk art, photography, handmade paper, metal sculpture, wood sculpture, fiber art, glass sculpture, watercolors, acrylics, and oils.


I will be offering greeting cards, boxed gift card sets, matted prints in a variety of sizes and new framed pieces. Check back - I will make a few more posts related to this event as the date draws near.

Be sure to stop by and say hello - and be sure you bring an extra shish-ka-bob with you...

Art festivals are so much fun. The different stalls, food and music. You get to see all the art works by different artists, all at one place. I would love to check out the Art Glass here.
