Downtown Ann Arbor Street Art and More Weekend Photos

 


Ann Arbor downtown is full of great street art.  The utility boxes on the street are almost all covered with murals. I enjoyed a Saturday afternoon walk there with Evelyn and Alice, which also included visits to a few stores and a coffee shop.

Planter boxes throughout downtown are decorated with wonderful paintings.

A small display-window mural.

More window murals at a restaurant downtown — for Sami’s Monday Murals.

Another winter-themed window decorated with a mural.
I’m happy to say that we do not yet have any real snow, just pictures.

Evelyn and Alice at Literati, the downtown bookstore.

At Cherry Republic, a shop that sells Michigan cherry products, we bought some cherry salsa for Alice.


At Home

Mr. Chips the chipmunk is still living on our front porch.
He likes to sit on the back of our rocking chair, as shown in this photo.

Ignorance in the Guardian?

  9. I love a town that has public art and espcially when they do it on items like utility boxes. My town's latest was painted pianos on State Street. People played them and eventually purchased them.
