Busy Summer

I have been super busy all summer getting ready for my first Steampunk Festival. I was honored and thrilled to be accepted as an art vendor at the PA SteamFest 2019 in Bethlehem, PA. The event was held at the ArtsQuest site in the Steel Stacks venue in South Bethlehem on August 31st. I applied for a spot in September 2018, which is a gamble for an outside booth. But, we were blessed with amazing weather. Low Humidity, slightly cloudy and a little breeze.

What an awesome place to have this event. We were in the shadow of the old steel plant where the stacks are located. They have created an outside area for people to enjoy with a walking path that goes up to the old train tracks and has a nature trail.

The event was very well attended. So many people were dressed in their Steampunk attire and Cosplay costumes. Very impressed with the turnout.

The vendors were also very different that most of your festivals. Many artists brought out their work. One vendor makes robotic animals out of re-purposed toys. They have touch and motion sensors.

My booth had several different items, from embroidered journal covers to up-cycled clothing.

Plus I had 2 Amazing helpers for the day Nichole and Alex. Many Thanks to them for helping me run the booth.
