The Artemis Corner kiosk is a bit like Superman, “disguised as a mild-mannered reporter.”  After seeing this deceptively simple booth, you must visit the main store to marvel at hundreds of unique sculptures in a stunning setting.  Links to this firm’s main store and MP can be found in the corner, along with pathways to ACS’s Facebook and Flickr sites.  Don’t underestimate these folks.  Their work is more powerful than a speeding locomotive!

A Shopping Suggestion: Think of Photo Fair as your hub or home for shopping. Come in, look, browse, listen to music, and then — afterward — zip off to vendors’ stores. But let these merchants know that “I found you at Photo Fair!” It only takes a second to send an IM to the owner of a store — and it helps that man or woman in knowing how to best reach you: the shopper. Thank you!

Ricky Capone will be entertaining at 6 pm SLT this Saturday evening, February 19th. Ricky, winner of the “2013 Second Life Got Talent Contest” is a performer capable of every style of music. Opera, country, jazz, pop, blues, rhythm and blues, rock, reggae, dancehall, hip-hop, Latin, and on and on! Professional singer, producer, songwriter, pianist, and guitar player. Ricky does it all!

After an hour of great music, the night is not over! Following at 7 SLT, stay and listen to DJ Bray Preston. She’s not your usual disc jockey! And she can handle most requests if you have ‘that special song’ you want to be dedicated to that ‘someone you care about.’

At noon today, Saturday, February 19th, we have Shady!

Next, at 1 pm today we bring back ever-popular fly Kugin!

Rounding out our four hours of music is two hours by the unmatched magician of music, Bsukmet Stormcrow from 2 pm to 4 pm.

Oldtimers remember when Second Life was abuzz with rumors of something called “Wind Light”. And when it arrived, “the smart kids” explained to the rest of us why it was so “cool’. It took us a while, but eventually, we realized it really was cool!

Here we are again! This time its EEP. A lot of us went, “Environmental Enhancement Project? What is that?!” Well, it’s past time for those who are behind the times to catch up (again).

Today Saturday, February 19th at 10 am SLT, Teddybear (aka teddysnugglebear.littlepaws) will give an hour-long workshop on EEP at Photo Fair. This will be a session where everyone will learn.

Shiva poses are the ticket for photographing women. A brief look at this booth will show you how much the female figure can do, but if you go to their store, there are more: poses for couples, men, and ‘friends’. Everything is bento! Also, how do 356 animations sound?

FOCUS Photo Fair features 70 shops for your shopping pleasure — not to mention building your photographic skills. You have seven more days to do your rounds and get what you want before this all disappears into your past. Time to get busy while Photo Fair is still running!

Starting at 6 pm SLT today, Friday, February 18th, we have Brenna on stage at the FOCUS Photo Fair~!

She delivers, every single time, providing you with an hour of palpable, non-stop entertainment.

Dancing in the hanger is optional but encouraged.

If you have a photo project in mind and want a trained, reliable, professional model, this FOCUS Photo Fair Vendor should be at the top of your list. Photo Fair really does have everything!

Krisie Snowdrop, one of our favorite Canadian musicians says: “I am no rock or country star, and I will never travel the real world or ride in a limo, but I am truly honored to have the opportunity to sing.” And tonight, February 17th, she will again sing — for you.

Drop out of RL and find yourself among friends, blissfully free, at FOCUS Photo Fair and fly on the wings of song. She starts at 6 pm SLT
