TJ Blair (Project Manager): "We worked closely with the Mosaic Market Business Improvement Zone to
create these Murals for the Higgins Underpass. The
majority of the artistic concept revolved around blending historic
sights in and around Main street with the diverse commerce activity in
the neighborhood. This was one of my favorite projects to work on as
these Murals were being installed in the underpass so close to our home
@ 109 Higgins Ave. Its always great when you're get an opportunity to
contribute to a neighborhood beautification project in your own
neighborhood! Due to the scale of the project, we were able to employ
about 9 individual artists in total to work on the Murals. The
diversity of painting styles are vast, which I think is a great metaphor
for the people and businesses that are involved with the Mosaic Market BIZ."
