Seasonal events return to downtown Sioux Falls
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) – It's not the typical start to summer break with rain and cooler temperatures. However, that's not stopping several annual events from returning to Sioux Falls this weekend.
The cloudy skies didn't stop visitors like Robin Rowe from strolling through the Falls Art Market Saturday morning.

'There's a really amazing custom knife maker. There's some beautiful art, jewelry and custom printed blankets and just a lot of neat things,' Rowe said.
The free event runs every fourth Saturday through July just east of the Levitt Shell. The next event is June 28th starting at 9:30 a.m. It features several local artists like Heather Cool who owns Heatherly Studios.
'Primarily, I am a mandala artist,' Cool said. 'I do skate decks, and then I custom cut wood pieces in my home workshop.'
Cool said she's been setting up shop here since the event first started.
'It helps me connect with the community, and it helps to kind of establish my name and establish recognition with people,' Cool said.
Right across the road, Levitt at the Falls adds to the weekend energy with free concerts through August- including special kids concerts on select Saturday mornings.
'Downtown Sioux Falls has done so many things, and that's why I live here. There's always something new and exciting going on,' Rowe said. 'I always encourage everybody, even if you're from outside of town, always come downtown because there's just so much happening.'
