We added some more pizzaz to the Mount Vernon Plaza Parkelette. A new Free Little Art Gallery (Flag) was installed yesterday which allows participants to take a piece of art and/or leave a piece of art. There will be new mini art curations monthly so make sure to keep an eye out.

There will also be free art supplies available soon in the drawer for people to make art in the plaza. Thanks to Lorena Garcia, the wonderful artist who designed the Flag and Kathy Hosek for the creative idea to start this program on the Corridor. More to come....
