I would like to see more local business display or share a table there. I really like Willow Street Yoga’s free class coupon idea and think more local business should participate and give tastes/coupons to attract new customers.
I heard someone in the crowd remark they wanted more arts and crafts for sale, but I did not miss that as we get that at so many other local events.

I’m not in any of those pictures! tehee.

It was a pretty bangin’ event… Ideas on how to improve? I don’t really know, since it sort of has to be in the alley, but if there were a way to expand out to somewhere… I didn’t stick around for long because it was so crowded… Though that’s probably just my social anxiety kicking in… Was very hard to move around though, hard to mingle, hard to check out the stands…

Of course, that also means that the party drew a lot of attention, so well done!
