The main draw of this popular event is an incredible group of artist and artisan vendors representing a mix of mediums, products and styles. There will be fine art photographers, a diverse mix of jewelry designers, and painters ranging from abstract to landscapes, mixed media to three dimensional and more. There will also be artisan-made textiles, glass, hand-poured candles, stationary, paper products and ornaments. There's a complete range of sizes and price points, so it's a great place to look for original artwork for your home as well as special one-of-a-kind gifts.

See stilt walkers from Matica Arts, and there will be free family art activities run by National Charity League volunteers. Bring a chair or blanket and have a picnic -- Taco Tequila and a Pizza truck will be there as well as So Fresh Doughnut, and Sono creamery serving ice cream.
