Art Fair This Weekend in Northbrook, Illinois

This weekend's event is in downtown Northbrook, Illinois, in the Children's Park. It is promoted as being for the children, but I haven't come  up with a product suitable for children. Mostly the jewelry has small parts and lead as hazards. Swarovski is starting to manufacture their beads without lead, but I haven't seen multifaceted beads in their new stock, just some that are reminiscent of Czech glass. Looking forward to seeing their new products as more are rolled out.

The details for the show can be found at http://www.northbrookarts.org/aitp.php#gallery
Artists appearing in the show have photos of their work so you can preview the event and make sure you see the ones that you like most.

Don't forget that it ends at 4 p.m. on Sunday, to allow sufficient time to see the show. This will be my second year, and many artists will be returning as well as new additions.

Hope to see you there!
