BARE BAZAAR - Mainly on Saturday, this is a kiosk village of artisans, merchants and other cool ongoing activities you can sample through the day. Body-painting, tarot card reading, juggling, massage, art creations, etc. And from about 10:30 through the morning you can TIE-DYE a t-shirt with Gil (for a small fee for materials). At 11 am all kids at Bare Oaks can do face-painting with Samantha (free).
