The local mall,
which is only a 10 minute walk from our front door,
was having an Art Festival this weekend.
Even the threat of rain, didn't stop the us or all the others.
Remember the Tree Socks?
The artist is the designer and creator
of all these colorful, yarn, wind socks
that were hung up all around.

Children were given balls of colorful yarn.

Tom and I enjoyed watching the little ones having
so much fun adding their
own talents to the sculpture.

There were several of these sculptures.
Notice all the windsocks. Each was so unique.

I ventured out to see some of the local artist.
All this and music too!
Hi Christine, Loved seeing this art fair; reminds me so much of the many we had in the silicon valley area when we lived there. Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteYou live in such a fun place..everything is so refreshing...I would have loved this
ReplyDeletenow this event is right up my alley! Love the wind socks and the hand on art project for the little ones! We went to a local art festival a few weekends ago and while Zac went to take his driver licence test (he passed!) Madison and I walked around the art show! Madison had so much fun creating a ceramic pig. Thanks for sharing... dee dee
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool fair! I absolutely love it. Wish we had something like that around here. Thanks for posting the pictures. Looks like you had a lot of fun!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon! I love seeing what the creative mind comes up with.
My hubby would be more interested in the music too.
This is so cool, I really like the kids doing the yarn art work. To have this so near was a treat, The music would have been one of my favorite things to do. Hope the rain held off, thanks for sharing.

I absolutely love art festivals. When they have street musicians as well, I'm downright giddy. I love them.
ReplyDeleteAnd I am freaked out that you are all in jackets. Intellectually, I KNOW the climate difference between us, but it's so odd to see it when I'm sweating all day in sleeveless shirts.
This looked really fun!
And, I see some yarn bombing, too!! Festive and fun!! Enjoy, Christine! blessings ~ tanna
ReplyDeleteYou plan the best outings and the thing I noticed more than anything was that people are dressed in long sleeves and jackets. ARGH! Why can't it be me???? We're about to die down here.
ReplyDeletewhat a fun time! Had to laugh when you said there was a threat of rain. :) Of course there was!
ReplyDeleteThanks for pointing Tom out. We would have missed him! ha.
