ART

At the 2010 festival the Arts section was incredible: it included a lot of spontaneous art being produced. We set up a neat gallery with the help of Canal Cultural (who also did some great silkscreening on peoples clothing) and some local volunteers, as well as a great art installation for the kids. There was a guy doing caricatures, lots of face painters, and stashed away right in the middle of it all an amulet maker. As part of the gallery sales, half of the proceeds went to the Cyanobacteria project, with the rest going to the artist. Here are some nice pictures
