Since when did stop signs decorated on the backside with birds and bird feeders become a thing? I’m seeing them all over the place the past year.

Last October the dinosaurs at Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek were first spotted but they inexplicably went missing in December. As you can see in the above photo they have now returned to the same spot as before, next to Macy’s.
A new exhibit at the Bedford Gallery in downtown Walnut Creek, The Great Wave: Contemporary Art About The Ocean, is on display through March 22nd.
From the exhibit website:
Artists through the ages have looked to the ocean in all its majesty and terror for clues about the planet’s future. This group exhibition features contemporary artists who live near the coast, and whose work immerses us in a watery drama. Organized by longtime Bay Area curator Ann Trinca, this show finds inspiration in the work of Japanese ukiyo-e master Katsushika Hokusai’s ubiquitous woodblock print The Great Wave. The Great Wave is recognizable across cultures as a symbol of the unpredictable power of the ocean. Using this historic piece as a jumping off point, the artists in the exhibition explore the ocean as a source of mystery and strength.

Check out the new dinosaur sculptures at Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek!
From the Chandra Cerrito/ Art Advisors website:
Two large-scale dinosaurs greet visitors and passers-by at one of the main access points into the shopping plaza. With seats, moveable parts, and a periscope for children to enjoy, the interactive artworks provide the perfect resting spot for weary shoppers and their young ones.
Spotted a few of these right near Todos Santos Plaza in Concord. I have no idea what they are, anyone know?
