Clinton Art and Music Festival

I will have a booth at the upcoming Clinton Art and Music Festival, held on August 25 this year in the village of Clinton. Artists will be set up from 10 until 5, but musical events go on much longer.

I am looking forward to a great day (hope the weather cooperates!) and I hope to see many of you there. I will have some show special prices and coupons for use on my website (get started on that Christmas shopping early!)
