The Indian Beach-Sapphire Shores neighborhood had some temporary additions March 5 for the Sun Circle Craft Festival. 

Local and regional artisans pitched their tents on Sun Circle for a day of art music and festivities. 

Neighborhood resident Jordan Johannes said the neighborhood's proximity to the Ringling and the lore that comes with it, an art event is a no brainer. 

"This area kind of lends itself," Johannes said. "There are a lot of artists in this neighborhood."
