May 26-29, 2023. Norhtwest Folklife Festival. Our hometown festival in Seattle is a fantastic celebration of all: arts, crafts, music, dance, food, performances, ... My girls with lots of help pulled it off again, but no breakfast feast chez Niko this year. A must for art/music/dance lovers.
June 2-4, 2023. Cincinnati--Summerfair. A show that we have done many years in the past. Happy to revisit. Good crowd, great organizers.
June 9-11, 2023. Columbus Arts Festival. Second time for us with another success. Would not allow my booth--had to use theirs, not a very good display. Great appreciative crowd.
June 16-18, 2023. Lakefront Festival of Art. First time ever at this show. Perfect weather and crowd. Big tent gone but sales were great!
June 24-25, 2023. The Lockport Outdoor Arts Festival. Worst show of the year for us. Very low attendance. More like a swap meet. Terrible.

July 8-9, 2023. Corn Hill Arts Festival. nGlad to be back in Rochester for another splendid show.
