Chili Cookoff and Fall Festival Sept 10, 2022 at Stonebridge
A beautiful, warm early September day began at Stonebridge in front of Open Space Arts with PWAS artists scurrying about with their colorful canvases.
Popup Art Show on the Sidewalk
Prince William Art Society (PWAS) members began arriving Saturday morning of September 10, 2022 around 8:30 am. The necessary art show items of tents, gridwalls, stands, hardware et al arise from the cement under those tents. Once placement of the stands is up, the artwork, the print stands, the prints all go into place. The art labels are furiously written and attached with the names of the artists, the name of the artwork, the medium and the asking price.
At 11 am, the Chili Cookoff and Fall Festival begins. The street is FILLED with the many other vendors that have arrived early and set up with their wares as well, with the Chili contenders placed farther up the street. The many, many visitors begin their arrival to enjoy the sights, the sounds, the smells and tastes of the day.
