The facts:

· Presented by the Anton Art Center
· The fair takes place in picturesque downtown Mount Clemens, a small-scale urban
landscape with retailers, restaurants and nightclubs.

The Mount Clemens Art Fair was among the first in the region to present fine artists and fine crafters along with alternative and urban crafters. Fine artists and fine crafters participating in all three days of the art fair are invited to conduct artist demonstrations. The Anton Art Center will publicize demos to attract a more discerning art fair patron, along with artist attendees.

6a00e54fba8a7388330120a8cdd3a3970b-200piSATURDAY ONLY, alternative and urban crafters will be showcased in the CRAFTERS CARNIVAL, a single indoor space that will encourage a community atmosphere. The Crafters Carnival is a more affordable option for casual crafters and hobbyists, and is geared toward lower price-points and quirkier products.

The space hosting the Crafters Carnival will change each day of the fair, hosting student artists on Friday and fine art galleries on Sunday, giving fair-goers reason to come back each day for a different experience. In addition a wide variety of performerswill be scheduled throughout the art fair, inviting couples and families to relax, while they continue enjoying the art on display. A Children's Tent will host make-and-take arts and crafts for kids of all ages, along with
age-appropriate entertainment.

The Art Fair has wide demographic appeal and will be advertised throughout Macomb County and the surrounding area. We will be providing postcards to artists, sending out press releases and e-blasts to our mailing lists.

I like the variety of experiences for the fair-goer, something different every day. Very nice idea. Plus the appearance of the indie crafters, an unusual facet to a traditional art fair. Check this one out! CM
