SUNNY & STEADY - The 48th Annual Old Florida Celebration of the Arts

Mandy Cassiano

Reports had crowd counts slightly below last year`s tremendous turnout, but given the 90 degree weather and high gas prices, attendance was good. Food vendors in the park reported steady sales, but most did not sell out. The artists reported higher sales on Saturday and were over all very happy with the event and the organization of the show. Most expressed their desire to come back next year because of the wonderful hospitality provided by the entire community.
