Milagros Collective, the artists chosen to design and paint the mural on the MARTA overpass at the corner of W. Trinity and Atlanta Avenues are back to finish painting the mural and to help with installation of the newly created Playspace underneath the bridge.
Felici Asteinza and Joey Fillastre (the artists that make up the Milagros Collective) will begin painting on Saturday, April 1 at 9 a.m. They will paint each day from 9 a.m. – 9 p.m. from April 1 – April 9. West Trinity Avenue will be closed to through traffic near the overpass so that they will have safe access in order to paint the rest of the mural.
The following vehicles will be allowed to enter through the locations: vehicles going and coming from 700 Atlanta Ave., vehicles going and coming to the Decatur Police Dept. or Decatur Municipal Court, delivery drivers for Trinity Walk, employees and visitors of the Task Force for Global Health. Trinity Walk residents should enter and exit the complex via W. Trinity Place at Waters Street.
Thank you for your patience as we beautify this area and save the date of Sunday, April 23 for the dedication and celebration of the community mural and new playspace. Celebration details to follow once they are confirmed. In the meantime, feel free to walk by the location and watch the progress.
