Posted4/20/2021 5:30 AM Safety concerns from the pandemic have halted many art fairs, and local artists have had a hard time replicating the in-person experience in a safe way.

Schweit are banding together -- while still remaining separate -- to sell their wares at what they are calling Art in the Garage.
