    I love this event and I'm so glad they were able to do again. Looks like more people are taking…read morenotice too. Not only is it free and a chance to see some amazing color at the end of winter (a time of year that can a look a little drab), but even the food and venders are reasonably priced. I just got a large slice of pizza from Salvatore's for $4 and a bag of popcorn from Doc Popcorn for $3. A nice lunch for a Friday afternoon. I love walking around and finding all the little details that Airigami has included in their installation, it's like a life sized look and find. There is also a small store, with a photo booth ($5 for a keepsake photo). Just like last year they have created some events to tie into the exhibit, including an Enchantment Under the Sea Dance--with a nod to Back to the Future (2015--get it?). The dance is sponsored by Yelp Rochester. There will also be another popping party this year, where participants will get to pop the balloons (with golf tees I heard) and discover prizes inside the balloons ($10 a ticket). Can't wait to come back later this week with my family and my good camera. I always love seeing the creative things Airigami can do. They also do custom installations for meetings, conventions, parties and even weddings--in fact they created a piece at the Rochester Makers Faire for the NYSCATE Convention at the Convention Center back in November, which was really fun to watch them build. I hope this event continues to grow.

    Balloon mania! Great temporary exhibit that is fun and very clever. The creativity is awesome -…read moreit is amazing what they can do with balloons. This is the second year we have gone to this exhibit in the Sibley building. Kudos to all of the sponsors of this event!

    540WMain is a Rochester gem. They offer a diverse range of classes and events covering everything…read morefrom vegan cheese to housing discrimination. I have been to two discussion-style classes at 540 and have really enjoyed both. Owner/director Calvin is a great class facilitator, and his passion for the local community is evident. Support this fantastic non-profit by taking an online class during the pandemic. I know I need the decluttering webinar!

    A very fun place that Calvin, the owner and proprietor has developed as a space to hold every type…read moreof event from community meetings, yoga to tonight's beer and cheese tasting. Calvin has local interns from the Rochester Works program a d exhibits local artists weekly. This was a very friendly place to go. Rebecca the Cheese monger, from Hart's grocery, served NY State cheeses and local craft beer and made everybody feel educated on how fun it can be to serve cheese, on boards with dried or fresh fruit charcuterie, nuts and more alongside adult beverages for appetizers or as part of a cheese course. There were a wide range of people in attendance. I love seeing locals come back to the Rochester area and renovate historical properties and rebuild areas that have been part of Rochester's unique history. I wish parking was a bit better, but if you are lucky you can catch a spot on Main street or one of the side roads. Fun times. I wish I could do half points as this would get a 4.5 as a fun place to put together a small gathering near the Susan B. Anthony house.
