Iowa City Art Festival #2


At the fest, I saw a stall with lots of people crowded around. It made me curious enough to go and have a look at whats special there! I saw a cute little boy of around 5 sitting on a table with lot of cartoon portraits around. Then I saw a person sitting in front of him on a chair with plenty of colors and painting materials. I realised that the boy was there to get his cartoon portrait. It was 10$ for black and white and 15 $ for colored. I donot think its anything high as its a rare opportunity to get such an opportunity to get our own cartoon done!!!

After being there till the boy's cartoon was done, I went to the opposite side of the fest where a large stage was made up with many people sitting in front of it in an area assigned. I got to know that we ought to get our own chairs to sit! They were still preparing for the rock concert for the night.


Then I couldnot wait anylonger to have something to eat. There were all types of food stalls too:-) Right from Chinese to American, Italian to Mexican, Indian to Australian!! I just couldnot decide what to eat. The best thing at the end of the day is a nice ice cream. I went a Cold Stone Ice Cream stall and asked for a cone ice cream with flavor called as 'Orel Overload' It was so tasty, I wanted to have many more:-(

I took the ice cream and strolled around looking for a place to sit when I heard full band music at the other end. I rushed to see whats going on there. They were a group of musicians with weird clothes on & playing the different instruments and also few were singers. They were best at entertaining people .
Then there was place to sit there too. The people were dancing around and cheering the musicians asking for more. I had a double treat there, Ice cream & music.

Overall a wonderful experience of "Art Festival Of City of Iowa City":-)
