Garden Mural & Outdoor Performance Space

The Guild created a mural themed “Art Lives Here” and constructed a platform for live performances in a community garden alley in Cowan. Inspired by the loss of cedar trees, the project revitalized a previously underused space and fostered cultural gatherings. The initiative deepened the town’s identity as a place where creativity and artists are supported.
