The Fourth Avenue Winter Street Fair officially opened Friday with more than 350 vendors offering everything from artwork and jewelry to handmade goods and food.

One longtime vendor is The Lost Highway Sign Company, founded in 2008 by Levi Koenen. The Tucson-based business has been attending the street fair for about 15 years, showcasing handmade art created from recycled license plates.

"The cool thing about my art is everything jumps out at you, it's bright and it brings them into the booth. They get to experience something just completely different that they're not used to seeing," Koenen explains.

He has license plates that range from sports, music, movie quotes, and even some keychains.

The street fair runs Friday through Sunday, opening at 10 a.m. each day. It closes at 5 p.m. on
