Also, I want to give credit where credit is due: Sam Classen of Golden West @goldenwestcafe and Susannah Siger of Ma Petite Shoe @mapetiteshoe who are the brains, brawn, and beauty behind the conception and execution of this event which has come together extremely quickly. There aren’t many people involved, myself included, but without their leadership and countless hours of work, this absolutely wouldn’t be happening, so whether it’s during the festival on Saturday or afterwards, please check out Golden West and Ma Petite Shoe on the Avenue Of Hampden. 🙆♀️🙏🙆♀️
Join us on Saturday, June 1st from 12-7 for the inaugural Hampden Highlights Festival. 📆🛍️🦄
