This event was AMAZING! Downtown Topeka has never seen anything quite like this...
at least not for a long time! It was the most wonderful gathering of many, MANY people interested in changing the negative view of Topeka, KS into something more positive....something more like this:



with great music,


amazing art,


and talented poets.
Along with yummy food, gracious vendors, super volunteers and lots and lots of people!
I was honored to be part of such a successful event. I even had two pieces in the show. One of which sold! And the other winning a merit award!

You've got to tell me who did all of the colorful, crazy paintings (luchadores, sunglasses, tattood arm holding ice cream, etc). Was this wall really at the Rethink Topeka event? I gotta know!

Hi Dan,
Yes, that fun colorful art was at the ReThink event last year (2010). It was done by Aaron Marable and his wife.
