Summer is just around the corner, and one of my favorite kick-offs for Summer vacation is Summerfair at Coney Island.  Imagine if you will…beautiful & unique artwork as far as the eye can see!  And it’s all for sale!  Last year I found myself a sweet fabric purse, a hand-made wooden spatula for Michael and an adorable set of salt and pepper shakers.  Jackpot.  I love meandering down all of the paths and spending time checking out all of the booths.  There are potters, painters, woodworkers, photographers, sculptors, jewelry-makers, and much more…over 300 artists coming together to share their work.

And for the young ones, there is a Youth Art Rocks! section where they can create their own masterpieces.  My kids loved this last year…they painted flower pots and made cool t-shirts.  I cannot wait to see what’s in store for us this year!
