JUDGE RULES AGAINST ARTISTS IN THE PARK - NO MORE ART SALES IN UNION SQUARE PARK, EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.
Happy Holidays Mr. Mayor!
Above - Donna Lee Michas, photographer, has a great website, including her Etsy Gallery: http://f47.foliophotos.com. But it does not pay the rent! Do visit her there where you will find framed photos for sale more reasonably priced than anywhere else.
There is something obscene about the way New York Street Artists are being shooed out of New York City Public Parks (our parks - in particular Union Square Park who are permitted a few selling spots) to be replaced by vendors who are paying thousands for the privilege of selling their Christmas wares (protected from the arctic chills by heaters and shelters) at vastly higher prices to help pay the rent. Wake-up New Yorkers as the of poetry life is rudely replaced by the power brokers of New York. Shame on you Mr. Mayor!
