I haven't visited this site as often as I want to - I have been slipping. I have been slipping getting more blog posts on my 40 Questions Blog Series out there. And I passed up going to an art show - Artscape in Baltimore...
Yes, one of the best art shows in our area - and according to some news reports, on the East Coast perhaps the USA occurred this past weekend in Baltimore. I don't sell at it, just my choice, but have been wanting to go to it and something is always preventing me to go. This year it was the heat - the whole weekend was God awful hot - 95 + degrees and we aren't getting any breaks here in Maryland. So I am a wuss - I just couldn't bring myself out to support my fellow artists.
This leads me to my ramblings... Why aren't there any indoor air conditioned art fairs during the summer time??? People during the summer often beat the heat by going to the movies, the mall, or any other place that is air-conditioned. Can anyone tell me where there are indoor shows during the summer and why aren't there more?
Thanks - end of rant,

I'm heading to Ann Arbor in the morning -- temp is supposed to be 90 with a dew point of 75, so the weather guys are saying it will "feel like 100." This is Michigan?? Oh, well, Ann Arbor thrives despite the weather and the crowds will be smaller tomorrow which will make it easy to talk to artists. Actually, this is not atypical AA weather.

It used to be at F&M College in Lancaster, PA
Indoor shows have the ease of not worrying about weather and dirt, but it is so nice to be outside on the grass. It is just a better, more pleasing atmosphere.
