Art comes in all different forms, and for some artists it’s in the form of a little cup of frothy heaven. Mmm, coffee. Join us as some of Indy’s top baristas throw down in hopes of claiming the title of the best. Judges will determine the best pour based on aesthetic beauty, definition, color infusion, and degree of difficulty and creativity. Points will be added for speed of delivery and taken away for sloppiness. It’s gonna get hot!
Describe your friend to an artist who will sketch him or her. How accurate do you think the sketch will be with only your descriptive words as the artist’s guide? Find out with Forensic Friends!

Have you ever awoken from a dream and wondered, “What in the heck did THAT mean?!” The Spirit & Place Festival is having fun with this DREAM theme this year by analyzing people’s dreams.* Do you dream about being naked in public? Driving a car? Flying? Stop by our booth and find out what it all means! (*Thoroughly untrained & unprofessional analysis offered… it’s free, what do you expect?)
Public art is everywhere, but sometimes we miss it when we are in a hurry or driving by. Take time to look more closely at our city’s public art in this themed walk led by Julia Moore, director of public art at the Arts Council of Indianapolis.
Note: This walk will end a bit earlier than usual, at 7:30pm, and at The Platform at City Market. It ends just in time for Mary Miss’s discussion on environmental art! Why not attend both events? More info here.
Borrow a pedometer from the Welcome Trailer and take a power lap around the Monument! It’s Walking Wednesday people, so let’s get stepping!
