Street artists seem to have realized that this is a pretty cool place to set up shop. The spray paint artist and caricature artist have been there awhile and are popular. I know people who make a point of seeing the spray paint artist each time they are in town. Lately they have been joined by a few more painters, one of those artists that write you name on a scroll with letters that look like animals, and a guy that can hand sculpt your head from a lump of clay in mere minutes. The sculpting guy in particular is fun to watch. You won't ever confuse Fremont Street with an art district, but it is fun watching these guys practice their craft and see people supporting them and leave happy with an unique souvenir. The 99 cent shops are still around too for those who prefer non-unique souvenirs.
