Felix Velazquez at Winthrop Fine Arts Festival!

I will be participating in the 4th Annual Winthrop Fine Arts Festival at The Winthrop Town Center right here in Brandon this weekend March 24 and 25, 2012. This family event includes around 100 artists, live music, food trucks, the Rotary Beer Tent, and rolling of Fresh Cigars! This is a beautiful outdoor mall built as a small town center, with restaurants (Green Iguana for dinner), bars and shopping. I will be there all day Saturday and Sunday, so please stop by and say hello if you are in the area.

After this, I have two more shows left for the season, and then we will wrap it up for the summer. I will keep you posted on all upcoming events via the website and email.I will be showing some of my new works and older favorites, together with limited edition prints for sale. Show hours Sat & Sun are 10AM to 5PM both days.
