East End Mural Project

Part of a great city is a great look and creativity from its citizens. Please see a message from East End Main Street Director, Mary Alice Hodgson below:


Hello East End Neighbors!!

Join the volunteers from East End Main Street for a special free EAST END FestivALL event! We're taking over the streets and getting inspired for our new public arts mural project with artist Rob Cleeland. Come on down and bring the kids to paint your own idea of what East End murals should look like. We'll have lots of paints, brushes and big canvases for kids and adults to paint on. Wear your painting duds and be prepared to create! Rob will be taking inspiration from what we paint that day to include in his final design. Artspace, a new arts non-profit will also be there with lots of fun fabric take-home art projects for kids and healthy snacks and drinks. Ron Sowell, superstar children's musician, will play for us at 10:00 am. We want the community to be a part of this special event and we hope to see you there. Not interested in painting? How about volunteering? We could always use an extra pair of hands that day! Give us a call and we'll let you know how you can help.

Please pass this along to your friends and neighbors and people from outside the East End...the more the merrier!

This Saturday! June 24th!
Time: 8:00-12:00
