Has anyone heard anything about the street fair this year? This is the fair where they block off the street in front of the Capitol Theater and people can rent booths to sell basically whatever catches their fancy. The DNA website says that it's supposed to be today, but I haven't seen any advertising to that effect.

The Olympia Timberland Library is having a small scale book arts show in the front lobby display case for the month of June, and we would love to put your handmade or altered books on display. This is a great opportunity for artists who are interested in displaying their work locally in a casual venue.
