San Antonio artist Stuart Allen‘s second annual Central Market grocery bag kite fly was recently held on the beach at Port Aransas. In 2007, the Texas-based Central Market stores began using a paper bag bearing a narrative about how the bag would like to be made into a kite. Says Allen, "Since I have a reputation as a kite-guy, a bunch of people called my attention to the bag" and soon he had a large pile of them in the studio. He invited friends and family to join him at the beach for a weekend of kite making and flying.
