On Sunday evening Oct.18 there was an unveiling of an absolutely beautiful work of art at the Eastwood mall. A large crowd gathered in anticipation of this event. Beautiful music resonating through the area by Eduardo and Heather Mandujano along with Margaret Jones and Nathan stephens helped to transform the room. The artists and friends crowded into the viewing area all staring at the looming black curtain raised twenty feet into the air. As the curtain came down you or maybe just I could hear and feel the air leave the room for a second as everyone took a deep breath. 
Sue Jacobs, The director of this project deserves a mountain of credit. To bring 70 artists together and coordinate all that had to be done was no simple task.
This mosaic work is but another beautiful example of the multitude of artistic talent

This mosaic work is but another beautiful example of the multitude of artistic talent
right here in the Mahoning Valley! As you take a closer look at each panel it is plain to see
that there is no real need to travel to far away places to get that unique work of art to hang in your home or business. I feel an urge to state first that it was a joy to be a part of such a great
project. Second, tell anyone and everyone to stop and think for a moment before you buy that generic picture from a chain store and go find a local artist and support those right in your home town! All of the artists involved in this project can be reached through
