Are you an artist or art fan? Looking to connect with artists, and maybe even bring home a few pieces yourself? You’re in luck! From June 13-15, InLiquid will be hosting another annual Art for the Cash Poor event at The Crane Arts Building. Many diverse artists and crafters will be present, selling their wares directly to you. There are over 100 artists and vendors signed on, and even more may be added. The event will feature jewelry from Aryal Ames and Buttercup, ceramics from Logical Hue, prints and portraits from Bret Pendlebury, and many, many more. As the name suggests, Art for the Cash Poor is also affordable, and no piece will sell for more than $198.99. The event itself is free to enter, so come check it out!
In addition to the great art, Art for the Cash Poor will also feature delicious food from Farm Truck, a mouthwatering gourmet food truck, ice cream from Zsa’s and delectable burgers and more from Spot. Of course, there will also be alcoholic and non-alcoholic refreshments, and the Philadelphia Brewing Co., Vita Coco and more have signed on to sponsor the event and provide drinks. Finally, Art for the Cash Poor will feature a wide range of local musical performances, from such groups as Black Mountainside, Nuevo Mexico, 56 Men, Gringo Motel and The Nite Lights, in genres ranging from rock, to synthpop, and even mariachi.
