Mount Dora's Art Car Show |
|
There are many forms of art that express the feelings of the artist, such as painting, sculpturing, crafts, or music.
However, a different kind of art was displayed at the third Annual Mount Dora Art Car Show that took place during the weekend of Aug. 18-20. Participants used their imaginations to decorate their cars with a variety of themes, and they were displayed during the show.
The festivities began on Friday evening with a “wild and zany” art car wedding at the Lakeside Inn. Two local artists that met at a previous car show were married, and their wedding and reception were open to all visitors. They drove around the area in their Driftwoodie, a 1987 station-wagon covered in sea glass, beach sand and driftwood.

The restaurant has only about a dozen tables, yet it offers a sizeable menu. The large windows, colorful Italian décor make it a comfortable spot for an excellent meal and quiet conversation.
