I look foreward to the Wyandotte Street Art Fair every year. It's a perfect family outing with great things to see. Every year we 'bump' into friends &/or plan to meet other friends there. The Many handmade items on display and the excellent food bring us back every year. Two of my favorite things: tie-dyed T-Shirts and grilled Bratwursts. Yummm. O, must NOT forget Dragons: sculptures. candles, stuffed toy dragons, dragons-on-T-Shirts...etc.

It's always enjoyable to talk with the people who actually created the piece of art to learn about its origin and the technique used to create it. There is always something new to see. Plus, it's good to see all the different shapes and sizes of humanity.

The Art Fair is a chance to feel a true sense of community with the entire city, whether it be the artists, the vendors, the companies, or simply seeing people you haven't seen for a while. It provides a nice break from the normal routine, a good reason to get some exercise, and fun for the entire family!

Each part of the Art Fair interlocks with the next.The evolution and history of how the event has grown is a source of pride for the city. I remember 40 years ago when my mother had a booth selling her art, and marvel at how it has grown over the years.
I love that so many artist have returned for so many years, proving it is a successful venue. I love the P.A.W.S. pet contest and locally sponsered lemonade booths. I love discovering new artists. And seeing old friends. Of course it goes without saying that the FOOD and MUSIC make a full day and evening complete. Our street art fair is one of the oldest and best in the state. We can all be proud !

Picture this.....
The art fair is in full swing. The day is perfect. Mid 80's, sun is shining, a slight breeze and a few clouds to offer a welcome respite from the afternoon sun. Then, almost out of nowhere, a huge storm blows through like a freight train on steroids. For blocks all you can hear is smashing glass and language that would make a sailor blush.
I know this only happens once every five or six years but, wholly crap, it is humorous even though I feel for the exhibitors.

There is so much to enjoy, the smells, sounds, and the fun art to browse through. I love the corndogs, it just takes you back to your childhood, especially if you grew up downriver and have celebrated all the wonderful street fairs, but the best street fair is wyandottes just because of the beautiful scenary.
