EatBar Bazaar

“I don’t think there is anything similar to this in town.” That’s the word from founder Becky Swiney, aka “Rockabettie,” on Jonesy's Art Bazaar. And she has a point: For one thing, this bazaar takes place in Jonesy’s EatBar, a restaurant; for another, it’s squarely alternative in nature. “I only have local artists who use their art only for supplemental income,” Swiney says. “With the economy in ruins, they don’t necessarily make much money, but it gives them a chance to get out into the community and show what they can do, and it’s free to attend.”
