Toledo loves love— and all of its murals. Those colorful paintings, sprawling across our lovely Glass City, are beautifying our town and helping build economic revitalization by enticing investors. Craving more walls to stare at? The Warehouse District Association is offering 12 local arists the opportunity to paint the wall near the Farmer’s Market (donate to help life.indiegogo.com/fundraisers/toledo-warehouse-district-mural-projects). “Martin for All” by Yusuf Lateef, on the corner of Delaware and Collingwood has been installed. Lateef also recently installed “A View from Above” on the corner of Detroit and Delaware. Local artist, Gail Christofferson, will work with the Department of Neighborhood and The University of Toledo for a stained glass beauty. A mural honoring the late local artist, Judy Dilloway, is soon to be installed by Maura Amato and some of Dilloway’s former students at Adams and 11th Street.
