Main Street Art Festival in Ft. Worth

[Nikonfan]

Is anyone planning on going to the art festival tomorrow? I have always wanted to go, but never have been. I'm hoping to get the in laws to watch my kiddos so I can go. My wife has to work. Here is some info from the official website:

MAIN ST. Fort Worth Arts Festival

Just came back from there on an extended lunch break. Damn that wind....it's ruthless and such a headache for many vendors. Lots of good photographs to view. Tomorrow should be so much nicer with much decreased winds.

[Nikonfan]

I hope you're right about tomorrow. The wind has been crazy.

[L Stegall]

Yeah, I was in downtown Dallas today and wasn't sure I was actually making forward progress at times, given the wind. While I am coming to Ft. Worth tomorrow to have dinner with family, I wish I had time to come to the Arts Festival as well, but this is one weekend I'll be stuffed in the office catching up/trying to stay up before hitting the road again. I hope the artists won't be blown to Wichita Falls with this wind, and thanks for alerting me we need to find a place for dinner that is not downtown!

[HuyMan]

I'll be there most likely!

[Nikonfan]

Cool. I will have to keep an eye out for you. I'm bringing my camera, so that should make it a little easier to spot me. Are you planning to take any pics out there?

[jeffro20]

Love this giant pic of Clint as well as the metal yard animals.

[Nikonfan]

I can't wait to go. I love that last photo! She looks really moved by the painting.

[HuyMan]

Yeah I'll be out there, me and my wife will both have our cameras!! What time you planning on going?

[L Stegall]

Now I'm really bummed. That looks so fun. Next year for sure. Love the yard art.

I'm thinking it will be early to mid afternoon when I get out there. What about you?

I usually make it to the Main Street show but the Southlake Art on the Square is this weekend too and it's a lot more kid friendly. Main Street is just too crowded to drag a 4 and 2 year old through. There is a photographer named John Scanlan that shows at Southlake and I always love to see his new stuff from Europe.

That's why I am dropping my kids off with the inlaws. One is 4 and the other is 1 1/2. I might try to take them out to Southlake on Sunday. Let us know how it is.
