If you drive or walk past N. 46th and Aurora, you’ve no doubt noticed the steady progress on the mural that beautifies the link between Fremont and Wallingford. The 46th Street Mural — which Todd Lown designed and has been painted by Urban ArtWorks and community members — is almost complete, and the folks behind it have scheduled a community celebration. Mark your calendar for Friday, Aug. 27, 3-6 p.m. More info will be coming soon.
Seattle Bank (which has a branch at Stone Way and N. 44th St.) donated funds essential to finishing the project, Linda Clifton, secretary of the 46th Street Mural Project Steering Committee, said in a press release. “This mural project has really brought neighbors and the community together,” said Clifton. “We are grateful to Seattle Bank for this crucial donation for completing the project and celebrating it with the community.”
The project is funded in part by a Neighborhood Matching Fund award of the Seattle Department of Neighborhoods. The fiscal sponsor is the Fremont Neighborhood Council.
