Art al Fresco: A Weekend Mini-Art Festival

No, not art in the nude (maybe next year), but rather 'art in fresh air'. We're trying something different this weekend by hosting a mini-art festival in our parking lot. We have a terrific street-side parking lot, and the plan is to pop up a tent and host a different artist each weekend.

This brilliant idea came from Ingrid Bjerstedt Rogers of Beldenville, Wisconsin. Ingrid is a veteran of the art fair circuit, and it was her suggestion to turn our parking lot into an art venue. And why not? We have a beautiful black walnut tree that shades the entire lot and it's very pedestrian-friendly. Stop by this Saturday and check it out.

Ingrid will be our first artist. I would describe her pottery as both primal and whimsical. It creates a very positive vibe and is very affordable. Good stuff.

I will post the 'Art al Fresco' schedule as it evolves. We aim to have something new every week.
