Furly Birds Unfurled

Furly Travis will have an art reception at Wake the Dead on Monday, Jan. 30 from 7 to 9 p.m. Though Furly holds a regular monthly gig at Wake the Dead, this one is special because it’s a chance to meet the artist responsible for the FurlyBirds now displayed on the Square.

Recently Downtown SMTX installed the 2-foot x 4-foot banners along LBJ, Hopkins, Guadalupe and San Antonio Streets, to be on display for the next three months.

“I feel very honored and overwhelmed,” Furly said. “Really, it hasn’t sunk in yet. I have not taken a walk downtown since all the banners have been up. I need to do that, probably tonight.”
