In the world of VCF major sponsors, the VIA ARREAS cover some ground, literally. Three major benefactors titled "VIA ARREAS" sponsor specific streets or areas of the festival. One such sponsor is:
"Welcome to my world of stitching. Hopefully you will find some tips, tricks, and designs of interest and will visit often to see what’s new with Ritohn Enterprises. I’m an educator and would be happy to consider traveling to your area to teach my specialties. I have over 50 years of experience in the field of sewing, design, and needle arts. I love teaching and sharing the knowledge I have accumulated. While I do many things, my specialties are Heirloom sewing and lace making. I hold 2 Martha Pullen certifications...If you have any sewing or needlework questions, just "Ask Rita" and I will be happy to answer your questions."

In other words, this tireless woman knows her stuff! Rita is skilled in both machine and hand technique. She designs and creates custom pieces that surpass monetary value. She is also a freelance instructor.
Often, we are quick to rush into the arms of bigger merchandisers, that make and create mass-produced wears and products; so, Rita's handicraft is something of a hallowed timepiece. Her work is a treasured art, one of obvious passion, marked for inheritance. She's a true talent, Facebook Community! And, she's willing to share her knowledge!

Thank you, Ritohn Enterprises!
Charlotte St. (between Sophia and Caroline Streets) is VIA ARREA 2, thanks to you!
