Here's some Downtown Transformation you can believe in - right before your eyes if you were here on Main Street on Friday Night. Whoever brought the double-whammy impact of the monthly Motorcycles to Main Street and a short-lived one-time phenomenon of interactive Public Art for just nine days in May are wizards of Creative Place Making.
Main Street comes alive most often and most frequently on the First Friday of every month when night-time automobile traffic is restricted west of Center Street to Country Club Drive. No one was feeling that 'historic vibe' when motorcycles roared into downtown on Friday Night May 4th for the U.S. Premier of FANTASTIC PLANET. It's absolutely fabulous - don't miss out on this. Some images were captured in a passing blur that roared by.
The celebration activating The Old Donut-Hole marks the first installation here in America of six gigantic inflatable humanoid figures by Australian artist Amanda Parer from the Land Down-Under at Mesa Arts Center and three more perched on rooftops around town.
Hundreds - maybe thousands - turned out in the heat for close encounters of another kind.
