Artsie Fartsie

Dear Peep and Zell, 
A few weeks ago we had a fun Friday night checking out some art!  In general you both seem to enjoy a good night out on the town, especially with the Christmas lights all about.  As we drove throught the downtown square Hen likes to cream, "It's a light city!  It's a Christmas City!"  It is always exciting for you to go on campus.  We arrived at the Grunwald Gallery of Art on IU campus.  It was all a buzz there with undergrad students displaying their work down stars but we were there to check out our long time friend, David's graduate work in the Grunwald Gallery.  You got pretty excited and Hazel's head swiveled around quick and excited as lights, things, and people created an exciting scene.  We went back in a corner room for David's interactive tech display.  
You enjoyed making the objects move and spotting the lights.  True to you though, the display you enjoyed allowed you to draw all over it and participate in a drawing app on a tablet by Juila Rickles.  Hazel continued to enjoy the lights and making faces at me.  Then you drew on the gallery wall and we decided it was time to high tail it out of there.  
Being an arty evening we dropped in at new little studio downtown where Megan was displaying some of her photos, we got to visit, eat great brownies and you got to bump into and run with DEVO.  
It was a fun evening and we escaped before any major melt down on either of you sweeties parts.  So there ya go, Mom and Pop are trying to teach you to be cultured.
Love, Mama
