The paint jobs on the cars might be the big draw for the Route 66 Blowout, but make no mistake—there were all kinds of talented artists showing their work that Saturday.
The annual Route 66 Art Show—which coincides with the Blowout—had a large number of art pieces available for show and for sale. See a full list of the winners below, and a few more photos from the show at the bottom of the story. Photos provided by Sheri Ishmael-Waldrop.
