Sioux Falls Sidewalk Arts Festival

September 15, 2009

Had a fabulous time at the Washington Pavillion Sidewalk Arts Festival last Saturday…we drove to Sioux Falls on Friday night, and stayed at a very nice Super 8 on 10th Street.  Clean, quiet, very roomy room…just what we needed.

Up “before the chickens” on Saturday morning (Jeremy grumbled but was such a great help!) to get to the site by 6 a.m. and set up…we were essentially ready to roll by 8, which was a Good Thing, because there were already folks shopping!

Met some really wonderful people at the show, and while it was a long day (drove back home after tear down at 5), it was well-worth the trip.  I even got to meet a fellow jewelry maker who I’ve gotten to know through a jewelry forum – it’s always great to chat with someone that I’ve just “talked to” online!  Plus, I got to visit again with Brenda Flourish, a fabulous glass artist that I got to know at the 2008 & 2009 Grand Cities shows.

Looking forward to this venue next year!
