An event that started in the '80s as a way to promote artisans and artists on the east coast of Florida is now a full-fledged travelling exhibit of some of the nation's most respected craftsmakers. The Aspen Arts Festival returns this weekend, Saturday, July 19 and Sunday, July 20, bringing with it upcoming artists - and those who already have a solid reputation -with more than $15 million worth of art and more than 150 pieces. The tents fill Wagner Park from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, and it's free to stroll through. For more information, call 925-1940 or visit artfestival.com.
