Sunday art show

It is that time of year again - the weather is getting milder, all the plants are putting out new leaves, flowers are blooming. People are getting back out of the house. Garden and other events start taking place on the weekends.

On the first weekend in May, there is an art show not far from here. It takes place on the grounds of a very old feudal farm - the only translation I can find is: manor - but I'm not sure that describes it correctly. The farm still belongs to the monastary in the same town and its fields are used by the university of Munich for agricultural research. The farm buildings are built around an inner courtyard. This courtyard, most of the rooms on the ground floor and an adjacent orchard are used for the art show.

All sorts of beautiful things can be seen and bought here. Clothing, hats, jewelry, ceramics, felted art, woodwork, sculpture, metalwork, decorations, paper, calligraphy, glas, enamel, music - I'm sure I've forgotten some of the art that is exhibited.
In the central area of the courtyard are tables and benches, where visitors can sit and enjoy something to eat and drink.The weather decided to treat us to some much needed rain this weekend; making conditions for the exhibitors and the visitors a little less than perfect, but still enjoyable.

Some exhibitors don't like pictures taken. So this is just a small sampling of the things I saw and wanted to share with you.










Hope you enjoyed the look around!
