Last summer we gathered our children, met up with a sister and brother-in-law to descend upon parents and another sister in Des Moines. This year we were missing five of those people, but H and I went for one more visit before we head off for sabbatical.
This time we braved the scattered thunderstorms and headed downtown to the Des Moines Art Festival. We were impressed with the variety and quality of art available. Artisans from many places showed their wares, and it reminded me of Art Fair on the Square in Madison during our grad school days.
This reminded me of Art on Tap, the differences being the smaller canvases and no instruction. Paint what you like!

New addition to the Pappajohn Sculpture Park. It has photographic possibilities that remind me of The Bean in Chicago.
I really liked this booth and the pieces that reminded me of Frank Lloyd Wright.
