“What a beautiful and unforgettable weekend!”

That was the common refrain by patrons, artists and organizers of this year’s Magic City Art Connection.

This weekend, Bham Now ventured downtown and captured a few of the sights from the 35th edition of Birmingham’s most beloved art festival.

Check out and enjoy the following photo gallery of local artists, community groups, and the Imagination Festival.
