Every summer, the California State Fair showcases the best fine art, crafts, agriculture, and food in the state. Before I entered the land of adulthood I participated in the Youth Arts competitions, and was unfailingly ecstatic to find the judges' comments in the mail announcing my inclusion in the exhibit. It was so thrilling to be able to see my art up on the wall next to other talented kids from across the entire state. I'm proud to announce that I will once again get to see my art on the walls in the Cal Expo exhibition buildings. I GOT INTO THE STATE FAIR, Y'ALL! (yes, that is the only appropriate way to announce this)
The fair runs from July 10-26, 2015 at Cal Expo in Sacramento. If the art doesn't draw you, the semi-sketchy rides, adorable animals, and funnel cake should do the trick!
