I am joining you from Middletown, Ohio, just north of Cincinnati.
Every once in a while the downtown area hosts an "art walk"- businesses donate their window space to house artwork of various mediums, all created around a single theme.
The organizers chose to highlight the plight of the homeless this holiday season.
The display (on loan from a city in KY) included photos taken by the homeless, crayon and marker drawings by a homeless guy who hung out in a Kinko's office supply store, and photos of families in a shelter.
It was very interesting and sad. A poignant way to be reminded of all we have for which to be thankful.
Bekah you are so right, I love a lot of the art, very interesting and sad as you said. Have a wonderful weekend.

ReplyDeleteThe exhibit sounds like a very touching theme for the current economic climate. The exhibit looks heart-touching and sad.
