However
,
that
changes
____________________
July
when
a
short
but
intense
monsoon
season
turns
the
vibrant

town
.
This
year
,
a
team
____________________
artists
tried
to
change
that
by
transforming
the
typically
gloomy
and
quiet
streets
____________________
a
beautiful
explosion

color
and
life
.
'Project

The

created

The
