By Tony Cagala ENCINITAS — The more than 100 banner artworks that line the street lampposts along Coast High- way 101 right around this time each year have come to reflect what it’s like to live here and quite possibly inspire those driving past them. This year, the Arts Alive banner project has also come to inspire a San Fran- cisco neighborhood to begin its own version of hanging artwork. As this year’s banners were un- veiled on Saturday, Richard Kurylo, project manager with San Fransisco’s office of economic and workforce de- velopment, was on hand to learn all about the project, from the materials of the banners to the paints used. Kurylo, who previously worked with the North Park MainStreet in San Diego, knew of the Encinitas art project well. The banner project, he Christopher Law reveals his “Angel of Hope” and the young girl who said, was always in the back of his inspired the painting at the Arts Alive unveiling.

MARDI GRAS GOES TO DOGS Hashbrown, a giant Flemish rabbit, joined the celebration at Helen Woodward Animal Center Feb. 11 with some help from the students of La Jolla Country Day School’s Classroom Without Walls program. The center was transformed into Mardi Gras and traditions were celebrat- ed with a Doggie Gras parade on the Helen Woodward Animal Center grounds. Attendees sipped on non-alcoholic Purr-icanes, snacked on BARK-King cake, took pictures against New Orleans style-backgrounds and voted for their favorite float.
