Arts festival, part 2

Oh my, I still have pictures from the Arts festival. The thing above was wonderful. They call it an earth harp. The strings were attached at about the 3rd floor level and have to be played with special gloves to get the harmonies just right. You can check out the group that did this at:

Welcome to graffiti corner. It is a great thing that the urban artists are given a space at the festival which for the most part is very yuppie. And next year, the festival will be exactly the same. Same set up and 90% the same artists. Will I still go? Yeah, if only for the performances and people watching.
