Art Fair, and Kickstart-ing a MI journalist
Breathe a sigh of relief, Ann Arborites! You made it through four days of Art Fair madness, with its half a million visitors and 1,000+ artists, all swooping into town to steal your parking space.It's also a great cash infusion for the city: organizers claim it has an $80 million state impact. And admit it, you kinda love the summery, festive, look-at-those-handmade-digeridoos fun of good ol' Art Fair.
