Strange Promise

BLM Alchemy 2020

Arcadia Creek

Gallery of plywood murals displayed at the Arcadia Creek Festival Place in downtown Kalamazoo. Murals were moved from the storefronts to the Arcadia park. This project was produced by 36 artists together with the Kalamazoo Downtown Partership and Dream Scene Creative Placemaking. See a video of Kalamazoo kids creating murals here: CBS News. See more on the artists here: Instagram pages. My photos were taken on July 4th and added here on July 14th, 2020.
