LIVE MUSIC: Musical groups will perform during the evening. Because visitors will be walking throughout the three floors of the 92,000 square foot building, (an elevator is available) the bands will be performing on separate floors. Some artists will have music inside their studios. |

| FREE Parking is available this year in the Mastercraft’s huge parking lot. Head straight north on 13th Street from the Hot Shops Art Center. (see map) As always, street parking is also available…keep your eyes peeled! |

First, Second & Third Floor Hallway/Artways: These extra wide passageways throughout the building are filled with artwork created by Studio Artists.
