Summer Shows!

Well folks, it's official. Summer is here, and along with the heat (and coveted beach vacations) comes something truly special: outdoor festivals and shows! bel monili has been exceptionally busy this season, beginning with the I Made It! Market at the Carrie Blast Furnace on June 16, 2012.

June continued on with one of the most major musical events in the area, the 15th Annual WYEP Summer Music Festival on June 22, 2012. Again, the I Made It! Market popped in with over 30 fantastic artists to join the many talented performers for a beautiful and entertaining evening. The first weekend of summer proved to be a huge amount of fun, with another awesome market at Bakery Square for the first of this year's Sunday Marketplace series.

bel monili rounded out the month of June at the 32nd annual Ellwood City Arts, Crafts, and Food Festival, a three-day festival of fun, food, and fabulous shopping.

July is looking like another amazing month, with two of the summer's most eagerly awaited indie markets: Bazaar Bizarre Cleveland (at the Larchmere Festival) on Saturday July 7, and South Side Works Exposed Friday July 13-Sunday July 15. Both of these events looks to be the best yet, with an amazing lineup of the area's most talented artists and crafters. Take note folks: this is NOT your grandma's craft show!!

bel monili is especially excited to announce that we have been invited to participate in the 2012 Country Living Fairs in Columbus, Ohio (September 14-16, 2012) and in Atlanta, Georgia (October 26-28, 2012). These prestigious events are looking like the highlight of bel monili's extensive fall schedule.
