‘Shop Local’ Mural Planned in Downtown Fayetteville
Fayetteville, AK – We’re going to have to add a new stop to our walking tour of public art in downtown Fayetteville.
That’s because local artist Jason Jones is planning to paint a 50-foot-long “Shop Local” mural, complete with one of his signature robot illustrations, along Archibald Yell Boulevard this fall.
Jones, who is a co-owner of local gift shop, Four-Legged Bird, launched a Kickstarter campaign to pay for permits, paint, and supplies for the mural on the south side of the shop earlier this month. With more than two weeks remaining, the project has already surpassed the $2,200 fundraising goal.
