Jingletown Holiday Art Walk

Jingletown Holiday Art Walk

This past weekend was the annual Jingletown Holiday Art Walk. The area is full of artists working in different media, and regularly have open studios to show it off.

It's also just an interesting place to walk around. In part because the area is decorated with mosaics, murals and sculptures created by the local artists. It's a fun, funky place. I went to a lot of different studios, but I don't think I hit all of them:

Special shout-outs to Jan Watten who put it all together, and to Fernando Reyes, who created the woodcut print that was used for the 2011 Art Walk logo.

Lots more photos:
