A what festival? Actually, it’s exactly how it sounds.
Seven artists have filled a space at Say It Loud (1121 N. Mills Ave., Orlando) with art made from cardboard.
Over the course of three days, the festival, created by The DailyCity, will showcase this unique medium as well as provide a venue for some parties, a pop-up dinner (sold out), and an interactive kids art event hosted by Kids Fringe and Mennello Museum of American Art.
