Art and Cars in the DTR

Today is the Art Walk right on our main drag in the DTR - S. Third Street. 65 artists all nicely packed in together in a couple of streets, so you don't have to go wandering all over everywhere to find them. Music - live music provided by the event as well as at the newly opening Tyrannosaurus Records. Plus a car show. I love car shows. Vintage cars are like art to me - here are some as yet unshared photos from Renton's last car show. Things start up at 11am. Head on down!

Gorgeous Car Show - let's go

This beauty is "rattle canned" design by Mike Roberts - on show whenever Mike and Crystal drive it in the famous DTR!

Sunday from 10 - 3pm, you can wander on downtown to The Piazza and beyond and see 700 gorgeous cars in the Return to Renton Car Show and Cruise - In. The Renton Chamber of Commerce and the Piazza Renton Organization assist with the production of the show, which is supported by local businesses, organizations and area residents. Arts Unlimited will be hosting an art show that we all get to view at the same time as the metal works of art know as the cars. This year will be almost twice the size as last years and encompass for more of the streets in our cool little downtown. Prizes, DJ to get us in the mood, a booth for kids, and many types and classes of cars to ogle.

There is still a chance for those who would like to enter there car here in this, the 19th year of this show. The $20 registration fee goes to the Renton Police Department's Youth Education Program.

Judging begins at 11:30 and the trophy presentation and Cruise- in at 3 pm.

Put this event on the weekend calendar folks - it's gonna be fun!
