The Allentown Art Festival

·

What is up with the increased drama between the two festivals? These signs located at elmwood and allen, way after the allen town art festival but just before you reach the allentown west festival are so douchey and just make me hate the Allentown Art Festival.

To be fair I was only there on a hunt for fried artichokes hearts, which I never found. We literally ran the entirety of both festivals on the quest for them. I hope I didn't miss it

I didn't love it like the met but it was interesting. Part of it was that we went when it was free and a madhouse.

I had seen many of the peices before which also made it not as exciting and I'm not a huge fan of paintings in general.

I definately prefer design amd art with more of a physical purpose. Say architecture, furniture, clothing etc. That beind said I really liked the picture if the men fighting.

Etched in stone

Messing up type in stone seems so permanent. Especially if its a war monument and its the name of the country. Would you take it off your CV?
