If you have been kind enough to follow my blog, you know I enjoy getting out on pretty days and riding around in the Corvette with my better half. One of the annual events that is a "must do" is the "Art in the Park" festival held in downtown Greenville, SC, in the spring. Taking in our lovely downtown district, enjoying all the many and varied art offerings and maybe finding a piece that speaks to your soul, eating lunch at one of the wonderful restaurants are all part of the experience.
You can imagine the dismay I felt when I read the front page of the Greenville News this morning. The decision had been made to cancel the event for this year and plan for 2010. Due to the economy, less sponsors, artists having to tighten their belts and not being able to travel as far to art festivals were the reasons given.
We will miss not being able to attend "Art in the Park" this year but will hold on to the hope for 2010.
