The transformation began Tuesday, August 18, as artists started sketching and bringing their visions to life. Throughout the week, the public was invited to watch the walls evolve from blank spaces into works of art.
The celebration continued Thursday, August 20, as Paint it Back partnered with Music on the Avenue for a special Downtown edition. The evening featured live music by The Stockwells, mural painting, community gathering, and the premiere of the Paint it Back documentary short film.
The week reached its grand finale on Saturday, August 22, with the Paint it Back Block Party — the community celebration everyone has come to love.
