Face Painting in Connecticut is like going to different Countries!
Hi Everyone!
It's been a while since I've blogged anything but I wanted to talk about my summer face painting at carnivals festivals and fairs. I live in St Petersburg, FL from the months of September to June and then I travel to the state I was born and raised in Connecticut. Even though I am a face painter in Florida, I've been face painting in Connecticut in the summer for the past two years now and it's really fascinating how this state has continued to keep some of these towns in very large ethnic groups. In the Tampa area, where I live most of the year, everything is all mixed up. There's a lot of everyone everywhere! But in Connecticut it's very different and here's why. There are entire towns that are just mostly Irish. Some towns are primarily made up of Italians, others are African American, Puerto Rican towns and even Swedish! I know that there are entire Lebanese communities in the Danbury area.
All these little ethnic towns have festivals and they are a lot of fun! I face paint in Danbury CT at the Lebanese festival and when you're there, it's like being in their country! They all speak primarily Arabic. They like to dance and smoke their hookahs. The food is authentic Lebanese and to DIE for. All these little festivals really are like taking a little mini vacation to another country! It's always great for someone to broaden their horizons a little and take a vacation to somewhere else and try something new.
Next time you see an ad for an ethnic festival, don't turn away from it! Go check it out and meet some new people, learn some new things about other people's cultures. I guarantee you will be a better person from the experiences you get. Mingle with the world and have fun. I do and I hope you do too!
Peace, Love and Happy Faces!
