Tuesday -Cool art around the city

in #artwork26 days ago

One thing I love about New Bedford where i love is how the city embraces art, and there are so many art pieces around the city, some I had seen before and some I just discovered.

I thought I knew the Historic Disctrict here in NEw Bedford pretty well up until a couple of weeks ago, I was walking to a spot I had been before but must have walked a different route than I have before and I turned a corner, and thought WOW how have I missed thism I wondered iinitially if it was new, but it didnt have the new feel.

This is what I saw

This is the Frederick Douglass mural located on a wall in New Bedford, honoring the famous abolitionist who lived there.

The mural was completed in 2001 by artist Danny Devenney, depicting Douglass and other figures related to liberation struggles.

It is located at the corner of Sixth and Spring Streets
