Kinetic Sculpture Derby
May 17th, 2009On Saturday the 16th, the 3rd annual Kinetic Sculpture Derby and arts Festival took place in Kensington, North Philadelphia. There was live music and good food, and many people were in attendance. The main attraction of the festival is the end of the race when the large moving sculptures have to make it through a mud pit. Here are some photos I took at the event:
