Zeb the Duck here again.  Last Saturday, July 5, Soapy Smith Duck and I went with our moms to the Cherry Creek Arts Festival in Denver.  There was so much to see.  This festival has been an annual event since 1991 and features visual, culinary and performing arts.

Dolan Geiman of Chicago, Illinois designed this official poster, “Colorado Blue Jay”.

Colorado Blue Jay is the official poster

We liked the ceramics by Linda Lewis.

Very nice Linda

Linda is from West Des Moines, Iowa.

The photographs were wonderful.

What a sky!

The photographer is David Mayhew.

Love these, David

David is from the UK, but now David lives in Colorado.

The sculpture by Harold Siefert of Houston, Texas is great.

We saw this sign for the Art Institute of Colorado.

Soapy’s mom and her money went here

The Art Institute is a sponsor of the Cherry Creek Arts Festival.  Soapy’s mom graduated from the Art Institute of Colorado.

This is by Dakota Pratt of D. Redington Design of Austin, Texas.  Dakota makes contemporary sculpture and furniture.

Something new for Soapy and Zeb

If you look closely, you will see this is made from bottle tops.

This one was already sold

It really looks nice.

Our moms like wood, so we all really liked these by Gary Burditt.

We love wood

Gary is from Loveland, Colorado.  This is Gary with another of his creations.

We like Gary and he is so talented.

We liked this statue.  It is permanent in the Cherry Creek area of Denver.  The plaque on the statue says “I Too Know the Eagle.”

In Cherry Creek

Very unusual and very nice.

The Cherry Creek Arts Festival, in Denver, Colorado featured 260 exhibitors, selected from over 2,000 applications.  We hope you visited the art festival.  If not, plan to come next year.  Also visit other art festivals this summer.  They have so much!!
