From the Community Walls Project of the 1970s to Project Jericho’s work in the 2010s, public art has played a key role in shaping Springfield’s urban environment and giving life to local revitalization efforts. Join Lauren (Lo) Hauser, chair of Springfield Public Art, on this tour as we explore several significant works, including David Black’s Flipover, Mariah Kaminsky’s Rose City mural, and Gaia’s Hattie Moseley mural. This tour concludes with a drink at a selected downtown restaurant. Meet outside 14 East Main Street.
Guided by Kevin Rose / Mobility 2
$22, which includes one drink at a selected downtown restaurant
About the Summer Tour Series:
Kevin Rose, historian at the Turner Foundation, created the Summer Tour Series in 2004 to build awareness of Springfield’s built environment. Then called the Summer Walking Tour Series, it featured eight guided walks of popular neighborhoods and districts in Springfield, Ohio. The series has more than doubled in size over the past 20 years, now encompassing 14-20 guided tours in and around the Greater Springfield Region. A dynamic committee of community volunteers oversees the creation and management of the series.
