Creative Hands

I love, love, love, the Magic City Art Connection.  It's one of Birmingham's finest art shows. You must know by now that I'm drawn to the children's clay activities.  They thankfully put the tables up under a fine magnolia tree with this fabulous light. I could stay there all day. If you are in the Birmingham area, the show starts today and ends on Sunday!

Magic City Art Connection - Eye Beam Project

Friday marked the opening of the 20th annual Magic City Art Connection at Linn Park.  Expect lots of photos for a few days!

Today I share the Eye Beam Project sponsored by University of Montevallo in collaboration with area architects.  This hands on activity for kids will take shape throughout the weekend.  I'm hoping to get back down there on Sunday afternoon and check the progress.

Magic in the Park

This weekend Birmingham's Linn Park comes alive with art and music when the 30th Magic City Art Connection gets into full swing.  My favorite spot is the children's art area, of course.
