Sunday’s well-organized Art on the Ave festival drew sunny skies and large crowds for nine blocks of musical, artsy, community fun and games with food and drink offerings for every palate.

Serving as the center point of the event, Lynn Di Nino’s “CHAOS into Order” temporary tower-creating performance art featured nuns on pogo sticks and more cell-phone action than a busy morning on Wall Street.

Art, food, and ephemera — is there anything better?
