Hazel Park Art Fair

I’m guessing there were maybe 30 or so artists with their wares on display here. Some fun eye candy and I got to talk to some cool people there. I was kind of broke that day, though, so all I bought was a hot dog, a water and a $ 3 magnet with a zombie Rosie the Riveter on it. There wasn’t much in the way of food, there, just a Polish place and I’m not too big a fan of Polish cuisine. And as far as booze, if you bought anything alcoholic to drink you were confined to a small area with several picnic tables, hemmed in by construction site orange netting, in which to consume it. Not a problem for me, but it would have been nice if my friend were allowed some freedom to walk around with her drink. The set-​up was a bit awkward. It would have been nice if the artists tents were in a complete circle, instead of an arc that dead-​ended at both sides. There was some music, too, off to the side, under a picnic pavilion. Most all of it was horrible while I was there, Saturday from about 12:30 until 4. Later Saturday they had the Space Band, who are awesome, and on Sunday they had Ziam, who is awesome as well. Hopefully those sets drew a good crowd. This isn’t the biggest or the best art fair, but I still had a good time. They’re only in their second year and they’re in Hazel Park, so they really aren’t doing too bad for themselves.
