Hi super friends! I hope that you were able to come out and join us for the North Park Festival of the Arts! We sure had a great time, and we enjoyed seeing some familiar vendors and meeting some new ones!
This is my favorite event of the year, as the crowd is always really friendly and out to have a great time (being next to the craft beer area sure helps)! We're able to offer some great discounted spaces for our vendors through our group, which makes us feel good! Thank you all for participating.
For the next few months, we're hoping to do some of the Friday Night Liberty events the first Friday of the month in Liberty Station. Our lovely Velvet Klaw has her fabulous screen printing studio there. Make sure and stop by every first Friday to see her lovely shop and studio, and even sign up for a screen printing class! And vendors, please let us know if you're interesting in participating!
Make sure that you've "liked" us on Facebook and signed up to get our newsletter to get updates on any shows and special events that we're planning.
