      The MOVE ME public art project at the Cambridge Art Council is outstanding!! I enjoyed the exhibition of Tanzanian animal drawings by Roberta Paul and the interviews she and Beth Kantrowitz had with Cambridge residents in the CAC Gallery. Friday night's opening reception, follwed by the migration of 12 "wrapped" vehicles through Harvard Square was truly awesome. We need more art "events" like this to bring artists and the public together for fun, art and social enlightenment. Collapse
