Festival Season in Las Vegas

It’s Festival Season in Vegas, otherwise known as “October” in other places.


Over the next few weeks, you’ll get the chance to see a lot of scenes like these:


I snapped these pics last weekend at Boulder City’s Art in the Park, the grand-daddy of art festivals in Southern Nevada. 

My son and I spent Sunday afternoon checking out each and every booth. The balance between actual art and only-at-a-festival doodads for sale was just right. And we loved that so many people had their dogs with them.

(Our total damage: one tie-dyed shirt for Dad, one gigantic ceramic mug for Son, and good-smelling house stuff for me).

Feeling festival-like now? This weekend you might want to check out:


And later in the month:

Life is Beautiful (A two-day extravaganza of food, entertainment, and art in Downtown Las Vegas)
Vegas Valley Book Festival (Major event is Oct. 31 - Nov 2)  


Do you have a favorite festival during this time of year?
