When people told us the town of Berlin loves art, we nodded "yes" and thought, "Well, who doesn't?" Clearly we were unprepared for the First Friday Art Walk sweeping through town. Sectioning off streets, visiting artists, wine tastings, refreshments, and live music all worked to prove that yes, Berlin does love their art.

We stepped out of the Atlantic Hotel to find a band of young guitarists playing on the doorstep. A few blocks down Main Street and we were hit with the classic rock sound of "Blue Light Special," a band comprised solely of professors from Salisbury University. Electric guitar and bass resounded among the brick walls of shops.

"Lights, camera... action!" ...three words many of us wish to one day say or hear while creating that Emmy-winning big picture. Most of us (including myself) resign to simply watching the beautiful films, but for those who aspire to be in the films, you gotta start somewhere. One of those places is the Best In Summer Shorts Film Festival.

The Best In Summer Shorts Film Festival, or BISS, held every year for the past three years at the Milton Theater gives young talent from all over the country a chance to showcase their work and see what other artists are doing.

Host Our Coast had the chance this year to visit the theater during the BISS and run the red carpet in a way that would have made Joan Rivers proud.
