Ninth Annual Skinker-DeBaliviere Art Fair

May 1976

From The Times Archives

For the ninth year the Skinker-DeBaliviere Art Fair/House Tour will take place on Mother’s Day. Sunday, May 9th, 1976, the 6100 block of Kingsbury will be closed to traffic from noon to 5 p.m. During these hours the street will become a tree-lined walkway where over 100 artists will display their work and compete for cash prizes. The judging for these prizes will be done by Stanley Tasker this year.

Tickets for the House Tour will be on sale at the Information Booth and at each of the houses on the tour. Free bus transportation will be provided for those taking advantage of this yearly opportunity to see some of the homes in the neighborhood. The busses for this are provided through the cooperation of Washington University.

For other special activities, as well as places to stop for refreshment, see other features and advertisements in this issue of The Paper.
