This post documents my experience on June 15, 2013.
If you ever were to head to Bay Village’s Huntington Reservation…
…you would find the Huntington Playhouse…
…a little red caboose…
…and, if you’re lucky…
…an arts and music festival.
The BAYarts Art and Music Festival is a one-day event…
…where booths are lined up both along the main lawn…
…and in a small section behind the caboose…
…offering everything from kitchen things…
…pottery…
…handbags…
…paintings…
…quilts…
…sea glass (Lucy’s Sea Glass)…
…and even T-Shirts (Fresh Brewed Tees).
For the music lovers, there were a Beatles cover band in the gazebo…
…and some classical melodies on the Huntington Playhouse stage…
…while art lovers could enjoy a live art demonstration by the Rust Belt Monster Collective…
…or wander through the open galleries.
Kids had things to enjoy as well…
…including an activities station…
…faces painting behind the caboose…
…and even the caboose itself.
But in terms of food, there weren’t that many options…
…with only maple cotton candy…
…and hot dogs to choose from.
Fortunately, the festival just happened to take place…
…in front of the Italian restaurant Vento…
…where I got to enjoy a nice scallop dish…
…and Max enjoyed some apple and cherry baby food that we brought with us.
