Art Walk Recap

I worked Saturday morning, and I must say, the art walk itself was a really neat event. I enjoyed the opportunity to stroll around and admire some of the great art local artists were displaying. For our actual booth, it was really fun interacting with the people who passed by. Their enthusiasm when spinning the prize wheel was very entertaining. One lady got so into it that that wheel broke off its stand and fell off the table!
The backdrop that they put up featured a collage of various submissions for the Show us Your San Diego Contest. Most of the people declined our offer to take their picture, but the ones who did seemed to have fun posing with the props (stick on mustaches, giant sunglasses, leis, and beach balls).
My biggest complaint is how weak the booth felt compared to what we had originally envisioned. When we presented at UT back in March, I was under the impression they were going to follow through with our ideas and really make the booth something special. Instead, they seemed to do what was easier and only do the contest while leaving everything else the same as previous years.
