We made the paper! Here is a snippet of the front page story featured in the Richmond Times Dispatch today about the G40.
Downtown Richmond is being transformed into an outdoor art gallery.
Artists from around the world have begun painting murals on buildings in the Broad Street corridor for a monthlong art show, G40 Art Summit – Richmond. Last week, the first two murals went up on a building on West Grace Street. One is an enormous mural of a pair of astronauts locked in a kiss. The other depicts two doves and a pair of open hands. About 20 permanent murals will be splashed across downtown buildings, including one that will be five stories tall.
“There’s such a need — and want — for something to make that area unique,” said R. Anthony Harris, publisher of RVA Magazine and an organizer of the event. “We think it’s going to have a really big impact on the perception of Richmond.”
