New! Fremm Fest '06
Fremm Fest- Take two!! This was our second time at the festival, and it was fun (but very warm! ick!).
We had the perfect spot and met many interesting people.
 |
Here is our booth- It's cute! We made a bolder sign than last year so people from far away could see it. This year we also sold a different variety of products- |
 |
Even with the heat, a lot of people came to the festival to see the bands, the art, and the various merch. And many of them were very stylish. |
 |
They had painting spaces- people could buy a space and go creative on it. |
|
These guys from Louse Clothing painted a mural. We watched them the whole day, we had a perfect view. Here is a step-by-step of their work. |
 |
Amazing, no? |

I went to Chicago, IL to attend a conference held by the National Scholastic Press Association. I got to learn about typography, photography, and graphic design. |
 |
The city is BEAUTIFUL. The buildings are so inspiring. |
  |
We ate at this restuarant, Gino's East. The food was pretty good, but the atmosphere was my favorite part. You were encouraged to write on the walls. |
 |
(I did!) |
 |
Millenium Park is a new park in Chi-town. It was so fun! Overall, I had a blast. |
Gila purchased a booth and, with two dear friends, had a blast. We sold earrings, totes, and (of course) buttons- custom and premade.
 |
Here is a poster from the event. it was fun listening to all of the awesome bands (some of the members were in my classes! and some bought buttons!) My faves- Brigma & Rudecha, Vagenius |
 |
This is my booth. Isn't it cool? |
 |
They did this at the park! it was interesting to watch, we had no idea what it was going to be when it was done. |
 |
There were two stages. This is at the end of the day, so the mood was a little less energetic and perfect for the mellow music from Vagenius (on stage). |

This robot is just fun. |
