Brookhaven Arts Festival

Saturday, October 20, 2012

After waking up early in the morning on Saturday to photograph the JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes in downtown Atlanta, I made my way into Brookhaven for the 9th Annual Brookhaven Arts Festival. The festival featured over 100 artists from across the state of Georgia and the nation as well as food, live music, rides, games and other family activities. Thousands of people came out for the two day event.  I photographed the festival for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
