July ArtsWalk - A Hot One!

The heat was no match for Henderson locals who took to the Events Plaza splash pad to cool down and drip the night away while soaking in some culture as well.  Along with a wandering accordionist, flutist, free craft tables and over 14 different artisans displaying their wares, it turned out to be a picture perfect evening.  The open receptions at our local galleries provided a cool place to hang out as well and sip champagne while chatting up the local talent.

Thanks to all those who enjoyed the evening with us and encouraged our local Henderson artisans.  Our featured craft fair artisan this month is Marlene with Island Girlz Jewelry.  Marlene creates pop culture charm bracelets made from upcycled materials as well as beautiful origami jewelry.  Some of her current popular items are her Twilight themed charm bracelets as well as Harry Potter, Taylor Swift, and other pop phenomena accessories.  She also sells online at:  http://www.etsy.com/shop/islandgirlzjewelry
