ParticipantThis bicycle themed art at Security Public Storage, 5223 River Rd, Bethesda, MD 20816 (right next to the CCT) seemed particularly relevant to Freezing Saddles. And I couldn’t resist getting my own bike in the picture.

ParticipantThis is such a joyful piece. It’s on a high point in the center of the park, and you have to walk across the ‘grass’ to see it up close. When you get there, if you’re like me, you laugh out loud.

Installed in 2017 — Wagon Sprouts is artist Christopher Fennell’s interpretation of Jack and the Beanstalk. The 24’ tall bean sprouts are constructed out of steel pipe and repurposed little red wagons.
The three sprouting beans create a gathering point where viewers can look up at the sprout leaves.
The art piece was created using funding from the City of El Paso’s Public Art Program. For ten years, the city has dedicated two percent of every capital project to site-specific public art. More than 50 public art projects have been completed since the program was started.

ParticipantI’m particularly enjoying this one, because I just started fostering a dog named Grace–and it took me only 24 hours to decide to adopt her.
