Alternating Current

And here we are in Houston, at a very cool art space called The Silos at Sawyer Yards; it’s an area of old warehouses and silos and etc. that have been repurposed as arts spaces. As it happened, our visit coincided with the monthly Second Saturday event, when studios are open, so we were able to look at art and visit with the artists.

The Silos are part of a larger arts area in Houston – you can read about that right here.

Well, even though there was a gate across the entrance to the church, that certainly didn’t keep me from sticking the camera through it to get a shot.
