Fall and Haloween in NYC

We took part in a children's event at the Whitney Museum of American Art this fall.
The focus was on the mobiles and wire work of Alexander Calder.

While the name was unfamiliar, the works weren't. We tried our hand at creating some of the 3 dimensional wire sculptures at the workshop downstairs and came up with a 'man on bicycle' - Siewster and Sydney, 'wearable bee antennae' - Siewster & Audrey, 'racoon face' - Jieh. Here is Sydney with her 'man on bicycle', it is easier to look at the shadow to discern the form.




















Following the event, we went for a walk in the city and snapped some photos of the drizzly day.
