Art in the Park Saturday--Unity Lives Up to It's Name

Last Saturday, Du-Jay and I had a blast at "Art in the Park" in Logan Square.   


Unity Park lived up to it's name, uniting artists of all ages, races and abilities in a flurry of color.   

This community endeavor was well attended, despite the beastly heat.   

We arrived at 12:30 and literally got the last two little canvasses available, even though the Art in the Park was slated to last till 3pm.

We also kind of missed out on the free lunch (all that was left was one sad pan of refried beans and a little bit of penne with red sauce).    But I'm thrilled that turn out exceeded expectations, and hope this becomes an annual tradition.  

It was great to paint to live, local music and dance and see so much creative energy going on.

We're looking forward to seeing all the works displayed and auctioned off this weekend at the 2nd annual Milwaukee Avenue Arts Festival, running this Friday through Sunday.
