Great festival

Lance Martin (author of a great food blog, btw) has a roundup from the Tomato Art Festival this weekend. Visit his site for some nice photos and a wrapup of the event. I agree with his sentiments:

"…the organizers put on an impressive street festival. Only in its third year, if it keeps growing it will soon
surpass Steeplechase in Nashville popularity."

To me, this incredible event is evidence of the revitalized spirit of our neighborhood. There’s a real and growing sense of community here, without which such events wouldn’t be possible. I’ve lived in East Nashville for more than a decade, and if you’re not here, well, you’re missing out.
