RSS FeedChinatown Mural Proposed For Verizon Center Metro Entrance – Meeting Wednesday
Readers may be interested to learn that the Chinatown Community Cultural Center (CCCC) is holding a public meeting Wednesday night (10/21) at 6pm. In typical fashion, the CCCC did not actively advertise the meeting to community neighbors and it is not listed on their event calendar, though we are assured that it is still happening.
The organization is proposing a “large-scale Chinatown mosaic mural” for the 7th & F St Metro entrance, otherwise known as the Verizon Center entrance. The proposal will be presented by Martha Jackson Jarvis, who painted the mural for the Anacostia metro station. It is unclear if any city officials will be present, but this meeting would be a good opportunity to provide feedback early on in the design process.
This blogger also can’t help but wonder why the 7th & F St (Verizon Center) entrance was chosen for a potential Chinatown-themed mural as opposed to the 7th & H St (Chinatown) entrance.
Edit: The meeting location is 616 H Street, NW, Suite 201. Enter from H Street or through the entrance to Regal Cinema, up the escalator one level, and straight down the corridor that is slightly towards the left.
