Do you ever go to art festivals?

I'ts like going to the National Gallery of Art in DC and looking at the untold Millions $$ in art. You can't take it home but the beauty lasts forever in your mind. Just like the poem : A Thing of Beauty is a Joy for Ever A thing of beauty is a joy for ever: Its loveliness increases; it will never Pass into nothingness; but still will keep A bower quiet for us, and a sleep Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing. Therefore, on every morrow, are we wreathing A flowery band to bind us to the earth, Spite of despondence, of the inhuman dearth Of noble natures, of the gloomy days, Of all the unhealthy and o'er-darken'd ways Made for our searching: yes, in spite of all, Some shape of beauty moves away the pall From our dark spirits... -- John Keats

why do I keep going back?...

Food? Isn't there always some kind of good food at festivals?

Hee hee, yes, it's the food! I always go grab a BBQ chicken skewer at festivals!

I usually go and just look at things, admiring the beauty of some and making fun of the ugliness of others. Even if I don't buy anything, seeing and experiencing the art is kind of like "having" it for a while, and that's enough for me. Besides, if I had bought it, I'd probably get bored with it a few weeks later!

FUNNEL CAKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've never been to one, nor could I tell you where there would be an art exhibit if I were so inclined.
