I Love Bulletin Boards
As a professional media person, I'm fascinated with all forms of public communication. Bulletin boards give voice to a wonderful variety of causes, entertainments, desires, products and services.
At the Catalyst Bookstore over on McCormick Street, I would expect to find primarily environmental & peace activist material.
A more mainstream assortment is to the rule in the windows of local businesses -- although New Age is not unusual.
Another form of bulletin board you'll find inside some businesses -- ones filled with a plethora of business cards, offering a wide range of services such as these out at the airport restaurant.
Things were quiet over at Prescott College's Crossroads Center -- primarily because the cafe was closed, meaning not much traffic. (I didn't get over to Yavapai College. Too bad -- they have several fine outdoor kiosk-type bulletin boards between the buildings, plus a lot of indoor stuff as well.)
However, figuring that maybe a few readers secretly are aspiring cartoonists, I enlarged this notice for a over-night cartooning do over by the new Art for All mural next to the city parking garage on Granite Street. Something to do after you've had a full day of cowboy poetry this Saturday.
