Check it out.........


Scenes shown are from the downtown Des Moines Arts Festival. 


I like this guy's whirligigs.  There are extremely expensive and very unique. I am impressed with this new building in downtown Des Moines.



There were dozens of flower beds lining the street all filled with Asiatic lilies.  They seem to be planted to bring color to this arts festival.


People watching is always a side interest as you attend large events like this. One girl has a creative artwork sprayed on her hair.


The thinker rabbit is a little confused about all the people being down town.  He is a part of the  multi-million sculpture collection that Papa John's donated to the Des Moines Art Center which is displayed here in Des Moines.

Thanks for stopping by...........

The Festival looks like a lot of fun. The whirli-thingy is especially interesting. I love the colors in it. Tom & I enjoy people-watching at large events too! That always makes for an interesting day.

Glad you got to go and that the weather participated. Does Des Moines have any flooding issues right now?

Larry,

What a great piece of kinetic art, makes me want to create an art garden really, really badly. – G
