Guerilla Carolers

So the Button Factory Open Studios was this past weekend.  The energy wasn’t as high as last year but I did about the same.  There were some highlights.  For one — a woman I sold a dress to last year came in with a bag of old sweaters to donate to me.  Another lady took my card so she could donate some sweaters to me that she’s been holding on to for a long while.  And the coffee guy on the first floor — thank goodness for him.

But the piece de resistance of the weekend was a group of carolers that just showed up unannounced.  They walked into a large open studio and started singing.  I was out in the hallway.  The artist came out confused and said — “there are people singing in my studio.”  I ran in with my camera and caught the tail end of the song.  That is me whoo hooing at the end.  I get choked up by this sort of random act of beauty.

May your day be merry and bright.
