Lawrence held its 35th Annual Fall Arts and Crafts Festival in South Park on Sunday. An estimated 6,000 to 8,000 people attended the event this weekend, either showcasing or visiting more than 140 exhibits including arts and crafts vendors, live music, food and activities for children.
"All of the art being displayed is handmade and includes quilts, doll furniture, pottery, jewelry, bags and purses, photography, wood furniture, birdhouses, and much more," said Duane Peterson, the Lawrence Parks and Recreation departments' Special Events supervisor.
KU graduate Jessica Stuever proudly showed off her collection of handmade children's hair bows.
Stuever was born and raised in Lawrence and now lives in Bonner Springs. A proud Jayhawk, Stuever's favorite part about Lawrence has always been Massachusetts Street and the University's beautiful campus. He majored in

"This festival really was my first show," Stuever said. "I mainly promote the bows by posting pictures on Facebook along with having the girls in my class wear them."
The festival also included a variety of activities for children, from a moon bounce to a miniature pony ride. For the older crowd, live music was held every few hours. Artists like The Beer Bellies, Lonnie Ray Blues Band, The Good Ole Boys, Sideways Glance, Billy Ebeling, The Late for Dinner Band and The Lawrence City Band performed at the Arts and Crafts Festival.

Colorado town becomes beer commercial set
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CRESTED BUTTE, Colo. — Up for whatever? For some in the tiny and tony Colorado resort town of Crested Butte, that would be a no.
They aren't too thrilled with a virtual takeover by Anheuser-Busch this weekend to film an over-the-top commercial for Bud Light beer and its "Up for Whatever" ad campaign.
Workers on Wednesday install a Welcome to Whatever, USA sign across Elk Avenue, in Crested Butte, Colo. Anheuser-Busch agreed to pay $500,000 to convert the town into a set for a Bud Light commercial. a sequel to the company's "Up for Whatever" Super Bowl ad.
Some didn't take too kindly to the secretive event, arranged between Anheuser-Busch and town leaders. Others embraced it.

The beer giant agreed to pay $500,000 to Crested Butte to paint several blocks of a central street blue. Dozens of workers installed a sand volleyball court, a multistory cowboy boot statue, a gorilla and a director's chair that comfortably seats six people. Some 1,000 revelers were to be flown in for the event — and outsiders were banned for the duration.
For two days, Crested Butte was becoming Whatever, USA. All painted in "Bud Light Blue."
"It's been a very divisive thing in town, for sure," said Shaun Horne, owner of the Oh-be-joyful Gallery. "Some people are not into putting a corporate label on the town."
Further upsetting some: The whole plan was secret until
about two weeks ago. Business owners worried about losing customers over the weekend, and their town's character, even if for only two days.
Crested Butte, population 1,500, is more of a craft beer town, home to art galleries, artists and second-home owners. It can be reached by one paved highway or two dirt roads over mountain passes.
There are no fast food restaurants or chain stores.
Anheuser-Busch scrambled to build support for "Whatever."
"There was a level of fear around the uncertainty of what we were trying to do, and we completely understand that," company spokesman Nick Kelly said. "We worked closely with the town, and we

also worked closely with a lot of individuals on a one-to-one basis to make sure we can answer those questions and concerns."
A steady stream of residents lined up Thursday to get a bracelet to join the party. Several noted that Crested Butte has hosted the Winter X Games and survived.
"It's a once in a lifetime thing. The community is everything you would want for a party town," said Christine Lyerly, a part-time resident.
And as for Bud Light Blue, "it's not an actual color like
