Arizona Rick the Balloon Cowboy is an artist with balloons. He’s also quite a showman (judging from videos posted on Youtube). Get ready to be amazed by him as he visits local libraries next Monday. (Photo from Arizona Rick’s Youtube channel)
A balloon with no air is just a piece of plastic. It just flops around and is really no fun.
But fill it with air and put it into the hands of master balloon twister Arizona Rick and suddenly it’s a completely different bubble of fun.
Arizona Rick has been making the fantastical balloon creations in Arizona for over 20 years. As an award-winning balloon twister and artist, he has enthralled audiences of all ages at many venues such as Resorts, Elementary Schools, Grand Openings, countless private and corporate parties.
Arizona Rick, the Balloon Cowboy, has been presenting the Great Grand Canyon Balloon Show at the Library Summer Reading Programs in Maricopa County and cities of Phoenix, Scottsdale, Glendale, Mesa, Yuma and others since 2009. The Balloon Cowboy also makes appearances at family friendly restaurants across the Valley.
