It's here! The final piece in Carving the Path to Commerce.

To check out the Augmented Reality portion of the artwork, scan the QR code, follow the directions on your screen, and point your device at the mural.

**Hint: the AR works best the closer you are to the mural - I found it best near the fence by the building**

Audio up!

We are so excited to share these pieces with the community! If you are unable to visit the location in person, check out the link here and engage from your home - https://www.hiddencreeks.org/artwork/carving-the-path-to-commerce

The FEED Media Art Center mural is complete! Take a moment and stop by this weekend to view the 32' mural on the east side of the building, depicting the history of the Mill Creek flood on French Street. Best viewed from French Street (but wait! There is ONE MORE part of this piece coming soon...)

This mural is the second public art installment of the Hidden Creeks Project, with a 3rd to follow this fall! For more information about the Mill Creek Flood of 1915, the construction of the Mill Creek Tube, and how we as a community can work together to keep our natural water/water supply clean, visit www.hiddencreeks.org for details.

Thank you to for being a host site for this public art piece, and thank you to the Looking Glass Art Project and Erie Art Company for your ingenuity and work to bring this piece to the community!
