Meet Michael at the Park!
We are excited for artist Michael Talbot to create the court mural as part of the Gold Star Mothers Park court renovation project.

Now that spring is here, Michael plans to be at the park to observe and connect with people. He hopes to learn about the neighborhood and would love to hear from you!

Weather permitting, Michael plans to be at the park:
  • Monday, May 27th, 10am-12pm
  • Saturday, June 8th, 12pm-2pm
  • Saturday, June 22nd, 12pm-2pm

If you are around, enjoy a nice day in the park and drop in to say hello!
