Lost Arts Festival – Grand Rapids, Ohio – My Experience

This post documents my experience on May 17, 2014.

I headed to Grand Rapids for what was called the Lost Arts Festival

…although the online flyer referred to it as a “rendezvous.”

I bring this up because, in the end, the food, refreshments and some other necessary festival elements mentioned in the flyer weren’t there to be seen during my visit (fortunately, I didn’t have to pay the $5 admission mentioned at the website).

To the event’s credit, they did have a cool target practice set-up…

…the potential for a nice fire…

…demonstrations…

…displays…

…buildings to explore…

…period people to talk to…

…beautiful grounds to explore…

…and a horse.

But after having walked the long road to the grounds and exploring them…

…I realized that this event was, indeed, a “rendezvous” of living history campers…

…and not a festival.

At least, not yet.
