Last night we attended the opening gala for Muse Fest 2011 in Old Town Rock Hill, SC. It's a weekend long music, film, and art festival that is centered on an indie craft show. Muse Fest is very much a sister event to Indie Craft Parade, and we were so happy for their invitation to join in the festivities. If you're near or traveling to Rock Hill this weekend, please check out Muse Fest. It's free and open to the public and runs all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Tell your friends!
The event is held in Rock Hill's super cute Old Town at the historic Post Office and Court House. Although the Post Office/Court House has been converted into the UP Gallery, it still holds tons of original charm.Muse Fest decked the building out in their iconic hot pink--complete with a crocheted lamp post out front!
Works by Jay Owens (from Indie Craft Parade's jury) are on display in the permanent gallery.
Check out all of the interior's gorgeous details! We're in love with the vintage PO boxes.
Some of our favorite vendors from the evening:
The Cordial Churchman - handmade bow ties and neck ties, and a former Indie Craft Parade Participant
Bounden Studio - handmade books
Other friends from Greenville and from Indie Craft Parade: Sew Sew Lovely, Emily Clarke Studio and Phoenix Fire Studios
