Seeing that we are sponsoring the Ann Arbor Art Fair right now I came across a fascinating article in the Free Press today, which seems to sum up the experience for everybody who goes to it. Especially the first four sentences which illustrate the festival experience in a general way.
Planning to go to the Ann Arbor Art Fairs this weekend?
Art is NOT the first thing you should think of.
Shoes are.
There's so much cool, beautiful, fascinating and fun stuff to see at the 50th annual Ann Arbor Art Fairs that you need time and good shoes to take it all in.
Having been to the festival and a few similar others, this quote really hits it on the nail. Festivals are fun but they take up a lot of space that you can't drive around in, the solution? You walk. For some people that can be fairly difficult, but if one appreciates culture it's probably best to take it all in as part of the experience.
Of course if you don't want to walk from your parking spot you can always take the shuttle if you want.
