The RedBall Project

The RedBall Project came to Memphis in May. It is an art project that features the creation of Kurt Perschke. He created a large inflatable Red Ball that travels from city to city and is wedged in various landmarks around the city. It was in Memphis for 10 days and I was able to see it all ten and shoot photos on 8 of the 10 days. The RedBall Project added a lot of color and photo opportunities to our great photogenic city. I am going to share some of the shots I was able to get.

Day 1
It all began at the Brooks Museum of Art in Overton Park.

 More at the Brooks Museum

Everyone is getting shots of themselves at the Redball

Day two was at the Daisy Theater on Beale St.


I missed Saturday which was day three. It was at the Beale St. Landing and the streets were cut off, I was alone and did not have time to walk down.

Sunday it was just off Main Street

Monday it was moved to the UT Student Alumni Center on Madison.


Tuesday it was lodged in Barboro Alley, got some great shots here

Holding up the world


The Memphis College of Art at Overton Park was a great location and the sky was wonderful that afternoon.



Next we Move to the Hattiloo Theater in Overton Square


Our new little Yorkie Pup Zeke got His own RedBall at the Hattiloo Theater, and he was excited!

The RedBall Project ended at the Stax Soul Music Museum. Here are some shots from there.


I hope you enjoyed the RedBall Project from my lens and Point of View!
