Artscaping

So, Artscape, I'd say its one of the best of the art festivals in Baltimore. I had a blast! The festival showcases ALL types of art: visual, performance, a/v, etc. I would have to say that I think their art vendors this year are starting to get cooler, especially in the fashion area. Over there I found a bunch of friends Rebound Designs was around as well as Pistol, Red Prairie Press, and Squidfire.
I stuck around pretty all day Saturday to see as much as possible, and here's what I found:

:People dancing in the air (my favorite thing)
:A phone booth for prayer
:A man on stilts and a woman dressed as a tree
:A milkmaid fashion show
:Crazy cool art cars
:A Star Wars art car
:McFerris Wheel
:An indoor safari
:Some really rad music
:And a nice tall drink

Its a really, really great time. Even if you're going by yourself! If you find yourself in Baltimore next year while its going on you should definitely check it out!

Rockin' Out in Baltimore!

Fort's good friends, Tim Kaye and his band, played a show at Sonar in Baltimore recently, so of course we went out to go party and play! Tim's shows are always a lot of fun to go to since we know all the songs and most of the "regulars" who attend. We totally rocked it out and danced our tushies off.

Mama Saray and the cool kids from the Library of Progress were there dishing up some really yummy looking food. Tim invited Mama Saray up on stage during the show to help him belt out a few tunes. She danced and sang and did a great job with helping to rock the crowd! I even got to dance with her a little!

We hung out with our friend Sam for the majority of the night. She's pretty awesome. Fort and I introduced her to 007s, probably the best drink on the planet ....not that I have that much experience.... being a fetus.... and all... ;P




It was an awesome night out! Even though Tim didn't play my favorite song "Me and the Dogs", but I guess I'll forgive him for that. ;)

Baltimore Farmers Market

On Sunday we headed out to the Baltimore Farmers Market (Holliday and Saratoga under the I-83 overpass, 8a-noon). It was a lot busier than I expected it to be. There was so much to see, so much to smell!
We started off getting coffee for Matt and Mister Donut donuts for breakfast. I'd just like to say for the record what awesome donuts they are! And my childlike interest thought it was really neat to watch them cook in the fryer. Thats a pretty cool machine. I wandered around aimlessly the majority of the time that we were there since it was a bit of an eye full, between the apple/strawberry stand, the crepe cart, the delicious looking breads, the beautiful flowers, among all the other vendors. There was even an area designated for a Craft Market! Although, Sarah pointed out that it was mainly comprised of jewelry vendors. It would have been awesome to see a little more variety, but its totally rad that its there.
Overall, the Farmers Market was a great experience! If you live in the area or are in town on a Sunday you should definitely go! Check it out! Support local Farmers!
