The Art Mart, °according to the group, was, once a show of very• fine. art. Then -craft-type ' articlesbegan to appear and later. hobby items. When the Kinsmen carnival- and the beer tent came on the scene simultaneously, artists"no longer wished to be a part of Summerfest, "Beer just doesn't mix .well with fine art," said Reg Bell. "Wine, perhaps. But not beer." That's why early proposals for 125th anniversary events call for separate weeks of ac- tivities - a carnival week, perhaps, calling for side shows carnivals, a beer tent, puppet shows, dances, a flea market, band concerts and competitions and special showings at Park Theatre; and an art week with sidewalk sales, Hurout County Playhouse, Passe - urielle Theatre, art' show and sale, photography, a children's art show and perhaps a display, of antique cars.
