I hadn't planned to take a break, but some other things came up and blogging wasn't exactly a priority. I've still been pretty busy participating in all sorts of grand adventures, and of course, taking photographic evidence of it all. There are still a few days left before my return to school, so I'll try and get caught up on the summer out here before I get back to Hawaii and return to my daily postings.
Artscape!
Artscape is the country's largest free arts festival. Baltimore shuts down a couple of streets for the weekend and replaces traffic with tents filled with artists, craftspeople and fashion designers. From noon to ten at night, there are constant performances- in the Lyric Opera House, inside UBaltimore or Maryland Institute College of Art buildings, on various stages, and on the street. It's a veritable smorgasbord of delights for your eyes, ears and taste-buds.
I went up there on Saturday the 18th with Dan and Ellen and the fish-eye attachment for my camera. We caught the Chinese gymnast show in the Lyric as soon as we got there, then spent the rest of the day meandering.
The place was positively packed.
One of my favorite parts of the whole festival was the Art Cars. There were quite a few there- from Hawaiian themed to a Yellow Submarine. I love Mondrian's work, and was so excited to see this one.
