Mid-City residents are familiar with the work of local artist Madeleine Faust. She made the distinctive “Mid-City” sculpture at the corner of Carrollton and Canal.
Now Mid-City Neighborhood Organization has commissioned Madeleine to design a neighborhood sign utilizing some of the elements from her sculpture. In collaboration with neighborhood volunteers on the Communications Committee, Madeleine worked through several iterations and finally came up with this bold and beautiful design:
With grant money from Mercy Corps, we hope eventually to fabricate several signs. Then we will need to call for more volunteers to help install them at key locations around the neighborhood.
