Artist Christina Castillo had both an official and unofficial role at Afterglow Market at Rotary Park in Lansing, MI. One of the many vendors on hand, Castillo was, officially, set up to display and sell her artwork; vivid splashes of floral arrangements, unique scenes, and animals portrayed in majestic and fun ways.

Castillo was, unofficially, Afterglow’s greeter. Her vibrant booth was perfectly located by one of the park’s high-traffic entrances, and she warmly greeted everyone who came through. With a smile on her face and eye-catching art at her disposal, she drew in fellow creatives and creative supporters alike. |THIS.
