- Just wanted to make sure everyone was aware of the third annual art and wine festival, "Tickle your Palette 2002," Sunday, June 2, 2002 12:00 - 6:00 PM in Market Square.

The festival will feature works by over 40 local artists and four different wineries.

A street fair of sorts, the festival will also include a market-square-merchants sidewalk fair (with individual merchants providing their own special perks), live music (several bands), lots of food and drink, and great stuff for kids.

The fesitval is sponsored by the Wine Harvest, the Framer's Choice Gallery and the Beatty Company, and all proceeds from booth fees will benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Association.

This has been a great event in the past, and will be bigger and even better this year. Please join us for a really terrific family event!
