In which our little town is invaded by some very cool snow-folk
Our local Downtown Business Association came up with a wonderful idea to promote local shopping and local fun:
This photo shows not only a terrific snowman, but also one of the art-salmon from the last great idea we had here:
Aren't they fun?
This one is from the Tulalip Casino, which is a huge supporter of local arts: (I'm sure there's a snowman around here someplace that was decorated by the Stilliguamish Tribe, too. It's interesting being in a community so strongly influenced by two very different tribal groups).
This one was made by the local berry farm family:
The local Rotary sponsors our "Duck Dash Days", including the famous rubber duckie race.

What a great idea for a small town..I love that everyone participates and that each one is unique to the business it represents.

Thank you for putting this up, really made me smile.
I used to live in Charles Schultz' home town (Peanuts/Charlie Brown), and I'm not sure who, but someone donated blank sculptures to local artists, and they're all over town. I should do a camera field trip when I can walk!
FABULOUS!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI have always had a special appreciation for all public art. Those specialized snow people are a terrific idea. Love 'em!

I love this! If Arlington wasn't such a trip, I'd be visiting to see these guys in person.
