Show Notes

For most people, Halloween is less than six months away, but for graphic designer Kayla Ek, the time is now. This Saturday, Ek will deliver new, intriguing, and — to some pedestrians — odd arts and exhibits to her second Nightmare on Jay Street.

Ek provided the first early evening exhibit in the marketplace last October, and its success created howls for another marketplace event in May.

Kalya stopped by The Daily Gazette podcast studio to talk about the Nightmare Marketplace, her start as an artist, her vision for the marketplace, and how early she likes to put up her own Halloween decorations.
