My favorite, originally uploaded by .imelda.

I got to attend one of the neatest events in Houston, Via Colori! This street painting festival is put on and benefits the The Center for Hearing and Speech. There were so many great pieces of art, even kids got to participate. Mason also loved the music and food! I was able to visit with many photographer friends as well!

Enter a world of color and creativity on the streets of downtown Houston when The Center for Hearing and Speech (CHS) celebrates its third annual Via Colori, a Street Painting Festival, November 22-23, 2008.

The festival will showcase more than 175 artists who will create original masterpieces on the street in a pastel medium. From creation to completion, festival-goers will be able to watch as artists turn asphalt into art. Food, beverages, entertainment and children’s activities will round out this spectacular fall weekend in Sam Houston Park and the surrounding streets of Bagby and Allen Parkway.
