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:
