Festival Season is Here - August 2013

It has been a very busy summer here at Merry Makers.  We have had two balloon training classes with over 10 new artist, a face painting class with 7 amazing face painters and we are all set and geared up to go.

We have already had the Greeley Arts Picnic which was amazing.. the weather could not have been more perfect.  Great painting, great stage shows and more.

Our next big event will be the New West Fest -- http://downtownfortcollins.com/events/bohemian-nights-at-newwestfest - this weekend.  Our booth is set up in the SE quadrant of the Library property.  We are on the NW corner of that quadrant.  Come check us out.  Several of my new painters will be there.

After that we will be participating again for the Tour De Fat/New Belgium's biking event in Fort Collins and Denver.http://www.newbelgium.com/events/tour-de-fat.aspx - They have hired us!! so we will be painting free for the participants.

Windor's Harvest Festival -http://www.windsorharvestfest.com/ One of our favorites - It will be in Main Park on Sunday and Monday where there will be close to 200 Arts and Crafts and Commercial Booths as well as a great selection of Food Vendors. There will be great music and demonstrations coming from the Entertainment Stage in the park along with plenty of rides and games for the kids! The parade on Monday promises to be as great as always.  Our booth is usually located on the south side, near the food vendors, however it is considered the western side of the park.  

Then we will have the Loveland Oktoberfest  on September 21 -- http://www.e-l-events.org/Pages/E.L.EventCalendar.php?id=4899 -- This looks like it will be a fun event!

Any finally - the Greeley Oktoberfest -- Sept 27th and 28th -- http://www.greeleydowntown.com/signature-events/oktoberfest -- We love Greeley!! we get to start the season here and end the season here.

Don't think it will be over though... Halloween is always fun!!  We will be scheduling private appointments to get your halloween makeup done.  We are open to the idea of setting up shop somewhere as a demonstration space this will be a way to bring attention both to you and to us.
