Fountain Fest

Chelsye Garrett spun a real yarn … but not in the form of an elaborate and fictitious story. Garrett was supervisor of the "yarn bombing" that has draped the Arkansas Arts Center's entrance, Carrie Remmel Dickinson Fountain, and a number of trees and lampposts in an elaborate, very real display of knitted and crocheted works by various artisans. The display provided the backdrop for the outdoor Fountain Fest, a Sept. 19 inaugural benefit hosted by the center's Contemporaries.
