Do you enjoy murals and streetcar history?  Come to Richmond, VA, this weekend and see how an old 5.5 acre bus depot is being transformed into a showcase for Richmond murals and streetcar history.  Luckily, the site of this local festival is just a short walking distance from my home, so already I saw a lot of work in progress earlier today.

The Light of Human Kindness Mural also is being highlighted in this festival.

 

Artists are Making Progress at RVA Street Art Festival

Two artists are making progress on their respective murals at the RVA Street Art Festival.

 

Being able to see the diversity of progress has been exciting, and I see it as a part of the urban renewal puzzle.  Do you live in an urban community?  If so, what is your community doing to promote urban living and thus helping to slow down suburban sprawl?

Andrew,

I wish I was there to appreciate it in person; but I'll settle for your photographs - they are beautiful! For me, to see what an artist sees and feels is better than chocolate and ice cream. It's the creative mind that uses their talent wisely that I have the deepest respect for.

You're lucky to have this festival within walking distance. Oh what an incredible weekend in Richmond!!! Thank you for letting me live through it vicariously!
