July 24-26, 2015
AnySquared and ABC/Project Logan primed the wall, projected and outlined
the design. We hosted the Community Paint Day where 100+ people from
the neighborhood came out to help and to paint throughout the day! We got a lot of work done in 7 hours! AnySquared & ABC/Project Logan completed the
wall in the following weeks. Check out these links about the mural:

Gratitude to neighbors who donated to make it happen:
Cole’s Bar, Cafe Mustache, Temple of the Dog, Hairitics, Hyman
Interiors, Radler, Bucket O’ Blood, Threads Etc, East Room, Boiler Room,
Art+Science and artists Nino Rodriguez, Lucky Gnome, and Rita Garcia
Sindelar.

Thanks to our wonderful Community Mural Volunteers.

Big thanks to Unity Park in Logan Square for their neighborly help throughout this project as well as lending us the tent and coolers for the Sunday Paint Day!

Community Mural Weekend: Projecting & Outlining Wall Saturday July 25!

Saturday night we had 2 different projectors, and 2 generators going at either ends of the wall at the same time.. As we lined up the image on each end of the the wall, a 10-20 person crew split up and sprayed outlines from the projections. After each of the 4 sections was projected we met in the middle at the 5th. The thing that took the longest for each of the 5 sections was the wiggling around of the projectors to get them proportional and lined up. Once the spraying began, it went quickly. We had the whole skeleton design of the mural guidelined out in 2 hours!

For 5 years AnySquared & ABC’s Project Logan have maintained the Community Wall. Needed touch-ups have required repainting over much of
the original mural. On July 26th we will transform this wall into a new mural.
