Look for Blue Tress in Manchester

The Currier Museum of Art is in Manchester NH and they have an outdoor exhibit of curious-looking blue trees. 


Volunteers helped artist Konstantin Dimopoulos paint about 100 tree trunks and branches with paint that fades after a while. "The biologically - safe colorant will wash from the trees, and they will eventually return to their natural state."

The artist has made these exhibits around the world, including:
Germany, Canada, Australia, Singapore, and the USA. I think it is nice that he did an exhibit in NH. I think it is good that people are helping him paint lots of trees. If he keeps painting blue trees then people that care about trees and the environment. 

Konstantin says he painted the trees blue because " blue trees do not exist in nature." Trees are usually brown. When a person goes by the blue trees they might stop and think about why the trees are painted blue. People might talk about the trees and what they represent. 

Why don't you ask your family if they would like to visit the blue trees at The Currier Museum of Art in Machester NH?
