Art Fairs and Festivals
What is better than community spirit? It unites towns and people. It extols the best virtues of an area. It’s essentially putting that best foot forward. With May and June, groups are doing their best to show that kinship as it relates to music, culture, food and the arts. Remember, some events in town are free while others have admission fees.

He wonders if students get turned off of things that they should find exciting — history and art being at the top of that list. I thought about how I had to take it upon myself to seek enrichment.
