Art Fair Weekend
It ALWAYS rains on Art Fair weekend (some things never change!), but the 57th Street Art Fair is also always a great chance for the Hyde Park Art Center to bring free hands-on art-making to the community, to share our resources with new people, and to just have a chance to hang out with the friendly folks strolling around the fair…
Young artists colored comics and superheroes, then made origami cranes, cicadas, and even french fries! Many thanks to Teaching Artists Erin Burk, Jessi Walsh, and Laura Shaeffer and volunteers Julie Stocker, Shelly Williams, Emily Weaver, Tianna Dunlap, Greg Beckett, and everyone else who helped out!
