     Last Friday I attended an art show. The art show was called Creative Soul of Dayton. The Creative Soul of Dayton is sponsored by many organizations. For example one of the organizations is Dayton Create which try's to enlarge the regions economic competitiveness. The show was held in the second floor of the Armory Building on 201E. Sixth Street,Dayton, OH.

      The reason we attended the art show was because a friend of the family was one of the artists on exhibit. Her display had a projector shining pictures through the windows of three slowly spinning doors onto the wall. The pictures were from her two sons coming of age trip. For the trip each of her two sons traveled to fifteen or more states by route 66. They both went on the 2 month long trip when they turned 13.

  1. Ooh! I like the one one that looks like a mushroom and its "roots". (Really, the domed part is the fruiting body, while the "roots" or mycelia, are the main part of the mushroom) Or wait...is it a jellyfish? Either way, I like it. Your friends piece is also cool!
