Making Art happen! 

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 and Outining

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

Making Art happen!

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!

Community Mural weekend: Priming & Prepping

Community Mural Weekend: Priming & Prepping Wall Friday, July 24!

Making Art happen! 

For 5 years AnySquared & ABC’s Project Logan have maintained the Community Wall at Medill. Needed touch-ups have required repainting over much of
the original mural.

When AnySquared organized the old mural on the community wall 5 year ago, we remember how difficult the bumpy wall was to roll and how long it took to prime. Because of that AnySquared & ABC decided to budget some of our benefit funds to hire Uneek to prime our wall quickly in one night.

On Friday, July 24th Flash ABC came armed with print outs from a file that Tracy from AnySquared prepared earlier in the day with the grid of colors. With three 5-gallon buckets of donated paint in green, blue, and grey, Flash and Tracy embarked on guiding Uneek on where the colors go.

We ran into a power glitch with the generator and sprayer and tried a few different things. After a while, Attitude7 walked the block on Medill and asked Sarah, a nearby neighbor, if she could donate some electricity to run the sprayer from an extension cord. After a and hour two delay, and with the help of this wonderful neighbor’s power, the spraying began. We were out on Friday until 1:30 or 2am, but the job got done and ready for Saturday!
