Perspectives on Another Successful Art Fair

June 1976

Original photograph from the June 1976 Art Fair photographic spread. Visitors and artists at the Art Fair.

Photos by Lynne and Ron Tilton.

Artists represented a wide range of wares and decisions to be made.

Children’s art work attracted attention, as did balloons, hot dogs and Polish sausage provided by the Scouts, and the Men’s Liberation Bake Sale.

And, as always, there was the chance to visit with neighbors and friends or sit back and watch the parade.
