Photo by Dan of Plainfield artist Hubert Reeder at 2001 Art Festival. |

Screenshot from the city's website. At least the event is being promoted. |
But Mayor Sharon Robinson-Briggs paid Dan the ultimate compliment by ripping off one of his photos (without credit, of course) to promote the event.
The photo Mayor Robinson-Briggs chose to use was of Plainfield artist and poet Hubert Reeder reading a copy of the Courier News while sitting amid his artwork. The year was 2001, which leads me to wonder why after all the money Mayor Robinson-Briggs has spent on staff for public relations the city doesn't have any -- and any more current -- activity photos.
Anyway, my thanks to Mayor Robinson-Briggs for the tip o' the hat.
Be sure to mark your calendar. The Art Festival is slated for Saturday, September 1, 10 AM - 4 PM at Library Park.

It would be nice to see the fountain actually working for this event instead of wasting away in the center of the park. Who do we need to get on that to make it happen?
10{41,if it's Dave Wynn as head of recreation and parks, not a chance...if it's Eric Jackson and/or John Louise, perhaps
