This is an area that has been unpopulated and run down. Lately, there have been plans to revitalize this area to bring in more businesses, like restaurants, stores, etc. There was an "event" at the Pearl District, last weekend, where local businesses used the recently cleaned up store fronts to sell their goods. Here are a few scenes from our visit there.....
Mrs. DeHaven's Flower Shop had lots of BEAUTIFUL flowers for sale!
Inside The Eclipse, there was an art show and art and photography for sale....
...all by local artists, of course,
A mural on one of the buildings....was ~SO~ GREAT! There were so many elements to it and so much to look at throughout the mural....loved it.
The Etch-A-Sketch, which was part of the mural, was so cool!
I thought this was such a hoot!
ALL KINDS of art was on display......
our day wouldn't have been complete in the Pearl District without belly dancing "art". ;)
And then I found Raven, the henna artist.
Here she is, giving me a henna tattoo.
Raven and her friend's henna tattoo's.
The finished product! My henna tattoo......isn't it so fun, shiny and pretty??
Until next time, peace out!
