#bwtbt – Day 28 – We’re rocking and rolling!

We have been rocking and rolling, moving and grooving… and Lynn is looking INCREDIBLE with all this new art up.

How are you liking the Truth Be Told fall installations so far? Here are are new updates!!!


Sheila Pree Bright

Sheila’s photography has been blown up, painted, and is being installed all over Lynn. These portraits are powerful and spark thoughtful dialogue.

Shout out to St. Mary’s for facilitating a virtual discussion with Sheila and their students about her work!


Golden

The Lynn YMCA playground has gotten a facelift! Golden has finished his mural with his characters on the wall there and we couldn’t be more proud of how it turned out.
