The 2021 Carmel International Arts Festival was a hit, and Where’s Amy was there to soak up the sun and fun on the opening day. Artists from across the nation attended the Sept. 25-26 annual event, which included talented artists, street vendors, children’s activities, food and live entertainment. The family friendly art fair is a nonprofit. Proceeds directly support the Carmel International Arts Festival programs and services that provide community education about the arts and fund student scholarships.
