There are two festivals coming up that will mean closing Market Street for some or all of the weekend: Creaticity Art Festival on the 16th and 17th and the Kinetic Sculpture Race on the 23rd.  They should both be great fun but be aware that traffic patterns in and out of the lot and the garage will be rearranged for those days and people need to allow extra time getting places.

During the Creaticity Festival I’ll be running a walking tour of nineteenth century dance sites both days at 2:00 followed by a brief dance demo. And, in the process of doing more research for the tour, I ended up with so much info about one section of the Bon Marché building that I put up a couple of web pages about it—for anyone interested, it can be found here.
