Not all wintertime activities require bundling up... which is good because Louise can't turn pages with mittens. #chalkart #holeinthewall #porcupine #booknook #manychaptersbeforespring

Thanks to accessibility ramps and pock-marked concrete, I never know who I'm going to meet on the way to the drugstore. #streetart #sidewalkchalk #pigasus #graffiti #whenpigsfly
Doodling in Public #763: Where there are no coasters, there are usually napkins. Napkins that dream of running off to a life of adventure on the high seas. #barart #napkinart #doodlinginpublic #paperpirate #avastopportunity
'Tis the season to make new friends with old coasters. #barart #coasterart #doodlinginpublic
If they look embarrassed, you should be embarrassed. Say NO to festive canine knitwear! #streetart #chalkart #doggysweater #brokenconcrete #graffiti

The new artwork by @davidzinn_art has been bringing joy to our visitors! Try finding all 12 drawings, hidden throughout the museum! If you think you can do it, bring a friend and get a little competition going. 😉 📸 credit: Dawn Kross Roult

I thought I was being visited by the Bluebird of Happiness, but on closer inspection it was the Budgie of Bemusement. #chalkart #urbanart #graffiti #bracketgrackle
Walter thought the label was a request, so he's doing what he can. #publicart #chalkart #winterrefuge @VinologyA2

Heads up & eyes down! There are now 12 small creatures hiding in the new University of Michigan Museum of Natural History waiting to be discovered. This Desmatosuchus is only a tiny baby brother to the real one upstairs, but he has a better smile. #publicart #hideandseek @UMMNH

My mistake - I thought Stan was afraid of leaves, but he was actually just gobsmacked by the sunset. #streetart #chalkart #graffiti #sensitive #turtle #soul #novemberfeels
Stan would enjoy autumn so much more if it wasn’t for the tiny yellow leaves. #streetart #chalkart #graffiti #fallingleaves #botanophobic #turtle
