With absolutely perfect weather on tap, this past weekend once again saw Lafayette's downtown converted into a bustling art marketplace with residents and visitors alike enjoying the perfect wines and beers also on tap at the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce's 22nd Annual Art and Wine Festival.
More than 50,000 guests were expected to throng the streets over the two days. Although the more than 250 booths featured mostly art and crafts for all tastes, there was plenty for the younger members of the community from the floating, spinning hamster balls to slides to bouncy castles between the two kid zones.
All this, plus delicious food and continuous great live entertainment on four stages, just goes to show it takes more than a fire to slow down the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce.
