February 3

The infamous Banksy has struck Salt Lake City.  If you haven't seen this artist's work, I highly recommend it.  It's clever and wacky, and also extremely talented.  He left a lovely piece here in SLC, but unfortunately the city decided that it was 'graffiti' and decided to remove most of it.  At least they left the boy's head.  And they also left the real graffiti that was right next to it.  Way to go guys.  But Banksy had the last laugh, returning after his other piece had been removed to add 3 yellow rats to the scene.  I feel honored to have been able to see something of Banksy's in person.
