Art Fest drew great crowds on Sunday.
A good-sized group gathered for the stage entertainment.
The Sorlie Bridge saw lots of foot traffic as there were booths and entertainment on both sides of the Red River.
Art Fest is open to humans, cats …
… and dogs.
There were a number of local celebrities on hand.

The highlight of my day was this guy asking me what I was doing. I said “taking pictures, do you want your picture taken?” He said yes, and I received permission from his mother.
Thanks Will, you made my day!
One final push through the floodwall gate …
