************************
SAULT STE. MARIE, MICH. - This year you can come to the 45th annual Sault Summer Arts Festival and make a day of it (on Aug. 1, 2017 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.). A number of food vendors offer everything from wood-fired pizza and pulled pork and curly fries to cherry products, maple syrup products and raw vegetables on a skewer.

The Cisler Center (in Sault Michigan) is open with the Galley and with air conditioned restrooms. You can take a break from perusing the arts to sit and enjoy the live entertainment, which begins at 1 p.m. on the Cisler Center’s outdoor stage and continues until the festival’s close at 8 p.m.

Artists and craftsmen offer one-of-a-kind apparel and accessories for adults and children; a wide variety of yard ornaments, both indoor and outdoor furniture; paintings, photographs, drawings and note cards; stained, fused and dichromatic glass; jewelry; sculpture; bike streamers, raffles and entertainment information and schedules; books and handmade soaps and lotions; spinning, weaving, knitting, fresh flowers and barbeque tools.

You can talk to the artists and authors because they are all there—no agents are allowed. You can be confident of the quality because it’s a juried show.

You can park all day because there’s plenty of free parking. Everything you pay for, you’ll either consume or take home with you because the festival itself is free of charge, even the entertainment—a public service of the Sault Area Arts Council.

A full roster of exhibits and entertainers will be on the Sault Area Arts Council website.
