I don’t often reblog but these were worth sharing. A wonderful project!
Thank-you Dave Williams for your post.
This year, the National Cherry Blossom Festival decided to not have a parade and street festival, which typically happen on the last day of the 2-week celebration. Instead, the festival asked artists to create designs for 26 cherry blossom sculptures, and these were placed around the Washington, DC area.
My two daughters and I had fun tracking down some of the sculptures. The festival provides a helpful map to find them.
Below are the sculptures we saw. Click on each photo to jump to that sculpture’s page on the festival’s website, which tells more about the sculpture and artist.
