Art in the Alley Photos
Last night was Trinidad's first Art in the Alley event. The organizers plan to do it again in the spring. The event drew a good sized and jovial crowd that enjoyed the art, music, and refreshments. A local dj added to the festival atmosphere. There was even a neighborhood based licensed massage therapist giving free massages. We hope to have more artists (amateur and professional) exhibit their work next time around. More photos after the jump.
Max, The photos don't actually show the full crowd. There were about 30 people there consistently, and maybe 50-60 total that moved through. It was a little chilly, but very clear and (thankfully) not windy. I would definitely call it a success.
Thanks to all who helped make this happen. And a special thanks to the artists: Elis Franzen, Elise Bernard, Robert Mann-Thompson, Kim Seidl and Jo-Jo Fekwa. You are all amazing!
Art in the Alley will return in the spring, once the weather warms up again. Local artists are encouraged to participate -- we'd love to include some performance art as well. The call for artists will be posted to Frozen Tropics again, or contact istandakimbo@gmail to get on the mailing list.
My husband is such a Talented Artist,I'm so very proud of him. Our 7 year old daughter is following in her dad's footsteps, she just may be at the next one. Madame Fekwa (Jodi)

Looks like a respectable turn-out for a first time event. The weather was cooperative, too.
