Saturday 2fer + Giveaway - Oct 2nd

I just couldn't choose between two great outdoor events to tell you about today. So I'll just call it a 2fer.

First up:
Oak Cliff & the Bishops Arts District have received a good amount of well-deserved media love lately...find out why this weekend at the Urban Street Bazaar.

Load up on handmade goodness from 90 artisans, modern crafters, and independent designers providing all the action. 

The shops and restaurants in the District will also be open with special sales & menus. And it's a pet friendly event - a bonus for me and my two dogs.

Check out their website for the event's history and more details on the vendors, parking and food.
