modern (hotel) art

every year the modern hotel opens its rooms to artists, so they can display their art and ideas freely to the public. it is a creative blast. there are performance artists, writers, dancers, knitters, conceptualists, and of course, painters. we were thankful for the taco trucks as well, it took time to see everything

 the masses making their way through the rooms. one room offered picket signs visitors could carry around

 jesse, evie and chris join the fray

 the room i helped with had writers who took a word from a visitor and created a short story out of it, this one is for my friend jimsi, her word was 'interesting'

 my friend cari went to the oracle, who handed out sage words of wisdom

another room offered the gift of annonymity, so you could observe the courtyard guilt-free

excuse my use of the phone camera in recent posts, poor quality but good enough to give the gist of current boise action

Chia 4! cari, chris and i (a.k.a. the chia pets) rocked the pub trivia. we got 4th place out of 13 teams. greg (far right) was there to cheer us on with his electro-bright polyester shirt.
