On Saturday, catch Maria Knecht bring the ground of the Creative Castle to life with her interactive, artistic design. No matter where you go, art will always follow. Floral Installation Tony Montano is the owner and principal designer at BUDS located on Hanley Road near Wydown Boulevard in Clayton, MO. He is a self-taught floral artist with a pas- sion to articulate his creative vision through fresh flowers in decidedly custom haute couture designs. He spent many years in New York City where he had the chance to experience floral designing on an entirely different level, having worked alongside New York City’s finest florists and event designers on many international events and the most glamorous private events. Tony has brought that inspiration to this year’s Art Fair! On Saturday, catch Tony creating his colossal floral installation and be sure to snap that instagrammable photo! Learn more about Tony and his work at budsstl.com . Clayton High School Buskers Located at the intersection of Forsyth and Brentwood Boulevards, we will have student buskers from Clayton High School. These are not your traditional buskers. If you like what you hear, please help support these student musicians and tip generously! 52
