Attn SPORTS FANS in the Arts District!

Hey Sports Fans--or should I say "Fanatics" ?
I know there are a few of you out there! 
Just published are these wonderful, interactive storybooks for kids. It's the perfect holiday gift for young kids whom you want to bring up rooting for the right team, at least the one that won't result in a family feud.....
Grandparents will want to keep one around for when the grandkids come to visit, and you won't find these on an e-reader.  Apologies to Duke and Wake fans; yours haven't been published yet.  If you're a UNC Tar Heel fan, there is one for you, although I understand the author is a die-hard Wolfpack fan. If you're an ABC-er (Anybody But Carolina), then you'll want to get one of each of the others: NCState Wolfpack, Virginia Tech Hokies, East Carolina Pirates, and Appalachian State Mountaineers. $19.95 each, available only at Willy Nilly, 604A North Trade Street, Winston-Salem NC 27101. 336-306-4050. Email to willynilly.ws@gmail.com

BLUES-A-PALOOZA Sunday Oct 7th

The AFAS Group's October 2012 edition of Arts on Sunday Festivals kicks off October 7th with BLUES-A-PALOOZA.  This season's edition features performances by Twin City Buskers, Peter May and Friends, and the Charley Ward Band. 

Arts on Sunday has evolved over the years into a hugely popular and well attended series of afternoon art fairs.  The 500 and 600 blocks of Trade Street, along  with the adjacent 200 block of 6th Street, are blocked off to vehicular traffic.

The streets are lined end-to-end with festival tents and tables displaying an amazing array of art and craft by area artists, many of whom sell their creations in shops and galleries in the Arts District.  Many of the bricks-and-mortar shops and galleries hold special Sunday hours as well.  It's a perfect opportunity to get a head-start on your holiday shopping and to show your support for local shops and artists.

Complementing the visual arts scene are a fun variety of performing artists, including stilt walkers, mime and balancing acts, clowns and balloon artists, and jugglers.  A special kids' booth offers creative activities for young people.

Start your day with Sunday brunch at Finnigan's Wake, 6th & Vine or Breakfast of Course. Then stick around for a visual feast of fine art and craft, live music, and great family fun. For more information, visit www.theafasgroup.com.
