The bell of the alphorn- so good to have something actually happen and get done. Refreshing in a year when everything seems to be way behind schedule. Posted by Picasa

The horns are glued on the truck and ride on the Magnet truck every day. They sound great under bridges and tunnels! The largest is a tuba which can be seen to the top right covered with toys of all kinds. The horn hat is covered with bright beeds and mirrors. Great for hands free playing. Get your child interested in playing a brass instrument! Come on down to the artcar festival the first weekend in August in Louisville and get them started! It is free! Posted by Picasa
There are almost twenty different horns- a virtual horn orchestra! Bring your brass group down and try it out!  Posted by Picasa
Conrad Bladey Horn Hatter and Artcar Artists invites you to pick a horn to play! Brass horns are connected via plastic tubes to horns glued on the truck! Conrad models one of his horn hats made from a french horn. Come on down to the festival and toot your own horn- maybe try out a horn hat.... Posted by Picasa
