ABOUT THE MURAL

The Eberwhite roundabout mural project is the first of its kind to be placed in Washtenaw County – creating a template for more to come. This project brought together the neighborhood and invited residents and visitors to become involved in a unique participatory painting experience over the course of a weekend. Over 150 individuals helped to paint this mural. The TreeTown Murals lead artists, Mary Thiefels & Danijel Matanic designed and facilitated the project with the assistance of 10 emerging youth artists. The result is the complete transformation of the neighborhood concrete roundabout, now a destination for residents and visitors who can take pride and ownership of their efforts and community.
