Around Ann Arbor

We hope the following links help you learn more about Ann Arbor and things to do while you're in town for the fair.

 

Things to Remember for a Safe and Comfortable Art Fair Experience

  • Drink plenty of water
  • Eat light meals
  • Bring a light raincoat
  • Leave umbrellas at home (to avoid accidentally hurting others in the crowds)
  • Wear light colored, lightweight, loose clothing and comfortable shoes.
  • Leave dogs and small children at home (there's even less fresh air down where they are!)
  • Wear plenty of sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat.
  • Keep yourself from overheating and getting overly tired-shuttles are available to take fairgoers back and forth to offsite parking lots and the AATA Link bus will be available to take you around the fairs
  • If you experience heavy sweating, clammy skin, nausea or vomiting, seek medical attention right away.
