Paint the Pavement Meet the Organizer: Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association
Meet the Artist: Forrest Wozniak
Meet the Artist: Forrest Wozniak
This project facilitates neighborhood community building and “placemaking” through the creation of a work of art in the middle of an intersection. Professional artist Forrest Wozniak designed the piece to be painted on the intersection of 10th Avenue South and 34th Street, tracing a geometrical design for neighborhood residents to fill in with paint. The large piece seeks to capture the spirit of Arts on Chicago as well as the neighborhood’s place within the larger South Minneapolis community.
The design was painted at a community event on June 8th, 2013. The goal of the project is to bring the people of this neighborhood together for a festivity of art- making, community pride-building, and cohesion.
