A good friend of mine (Rob Cochran) is involved with the event and based on that I would feel safe...

PAY $25.00 to go to an Art Sale & Fiesta, YIKES think I'd just as soon walk into a gallery for free and with all the Fiestas for free too, just seems very pricey to me.......

They do great work for the local kids and Rob really is an all round great guy. Just getting to hear his story is worth the price of admission...

Seems if they are helping the locals they would keep the pricing lower so that the locals could actually affrod to come and participate. I know for a fact that the area for the locals is seriously hurting financially due to lack of work and crimes there are rising, just makes little sense to charge such a price so as to exclude those they are trying to help.
