Even though Olympia's Fall Arts Walk is usually deemed the lesser of the bi-annual festival, with spring bringing brighter days and the impressive Procession of the Species, this fall event, in its 47th incarnation, brought plenty of sunshine, creativity and people.
From the Make Olympia Market sporting local crafts and artisans to the 4th Ave Bridge, which was decorated with yarn, music and art filled the streets and businesses of downtown Olympia.
Along Capitol Way, the Artesian Rumble Arkestra brought their spiced-up marching band through The Brotherhood Lounge, their instruments decorated in neon tubes. A few doors over, a 16-year-old piano prodigy played in a door-stoop, his tip jar labeled "Car Fund."
Along Fourth Avenue, live music rotated in front of Capitol City Guitars, including Full Moon Radio, whose captive audience demanded an encore from the all-girl rawk band.
Friday night, fire dancers took over Fifth Avenue and the bars had live music, from Ethan Tucker at the 1230 Room, The Hardway at 4th Ave, and Spittin Cobras at McCoy's. There was truly something for everybody.
Saturday brought plenty more sunshine for families during the day, with lots of artwork on display from local schools, and an opportunity to view windows full of displays, such as ceramic superheroes at Danger Room Comics, and the works of talents like Christopher Ross and China Star.
Congratulations Olympia on another successful Arts Walk.
