Project Details
In collaboration with the City of Whitehall, Catalyst Columbus brought public art to the community with the project "Street Art in the Park". This marked the third successful collaboration between the two organizations aimed at enriching the community through public art. The project featured three regional mural artists: Dane Khy, Lucie Shearer, and Mandi Caskey. Each artist transformed a building in or around John Bishop Park into a vibrant, museum-quality artwork.
Whitehall Schools students also played a role in the project, collaborating with the artists on one of the installations. The completion of the murals was celebrated with a community event at John Bishop Park, offering residents a chance to meet the artists and witness their creative process. The City of Whitehall played a key role as a major financial partner, recognizing the project's potential to engage the community and revitalize downtown Whitehall.
