Local spotlight: Art Rock

It's been more than five years since Amanda Linton sat in her bakery at the since-closed House of Vintage in Delray Beach and wondered if she could pull off her first craft fair.

The third-generation seamstress and crafter succeeded with that event, called Stitch Rock, and has since launched a handful of others. One of those shows, the annual Art Rock, will take place Saturday at the Armory Art Center in West Palm Beach and feature, as Linton puts it, "art you can hang on your walls, wear, eat, admire or even sip your coffee from."

To read the rest of my story about Art Rock, visit the Sun Sentinel's Showtime section.

Some of the works you will find at Art Rock can be viewed in the slide show above.
