This year saw the addition of 5 outdoor murals, and 1 indoor mural. Also, Cooperative Gallery members Mary Rose and Judy Salton hosted a mural panels show at the gallery in February that focused attention on the DPA and what we do! Then starting with the Lee Barta Community Center Mural, artist Rasha Taher with the help of her family and the community went above and beyond to paint a beautiful mural on the whole building! Next, four artists painted four adjacent murals on the south wall of the Southside Commons park. The goal was to brighten up the park and provide photo opportunities in front of each of the murals. The four artists were Rasha Taher, Ann Pellegrino, new muralist Robyn Geranis, and AmArA*jk. But we would be remiss without thanking the hard work of the primers of the wall, Mark Bowers, Stephanie Brewer, Diane Lia, Carol Hawley, and several of the artists. We’d also like to thank Robby’s Discount Wine & Liquor for providing the wall and a generous donation. And lastly new muralist Mary Petrosky painted our first indoor mural called ‘growing food. growing community’ in the VINES Office Conference Room. All in all a productive year.
