On my return visit I did notice that many artists took my advise and did
put signs with their prices up, and/or added easy to find contact information.
I have never been a fan of anything that is for sale and which yet makes you ask what the price is. In this context, just like in a commercial gallery context, art is a commodity and if you want to sell your artwork, you better make it very clear how much the artwork is.
Still working on my review...
Per the comments here, seems like some asshole has an issue with artist Gloria Chapa's installation and vandalized it on the 23rd. Chapa repaired the vandalism, only to have the installation vandalized again (apparently according to her, by the same asshole) on Friday evening.
Chapa fixed it again, and when I saw it on Saturday it looked terrific, but one has to wonder what's going on through the head of the mutant doing this.

Clearly the vandal is some sicko who hates children or babies...
I think the vandal is a pro choice crazy that thinks that the Chapas piece is a pro life piece of art.
