We are always on the look-out for weird and unusual art in Larryville. We noticed some crazy structures in front of the Spencer Museum. According to the Spencer's website, they are participating in a "Yarn Bombing." Area artists helped create structures that are at the entrance of the museum. Here is what the museum's website says about them:
A squadron of snuggly snails currently occupies a bench near the Spencer Museum of Art's front entrance. While "snuggly" and "snails" may seem contradictory terms, in this case they're not--these snails are of the subgenus Helix soft and crocheted. And they fit right in with the colorful yarn flowers currently blooming in the Museum's central greenspace.
