Madisonville Mural

“The Scribe, Fish, and the Sea”
A project of the 2007 ArtWorks Summer Program
  • Madisonville Arts Center - 5201 Whetsel Ave.  Cincinnati, OH 45227
  • Mural dedicated August 2007

Madisonville Mural

While being painted, the Madisonville mural was almost completely obscured by four levels of sturdy scaffolding. Now it is unveiled and the mural is an ocean of color and design. With bright colors and images inspired by the sea, while waves crowning the mural rise above the top edge of the building to create a whimsical horizon for the new Madisonville Arts Center (MAC).  The other stunning component of the MAC are the mosaics columns set at the building’s entryway, a multicolored wash made of a variety of different tile and glass fragments, that swirl around to welcome visitors. 
           
The MAC is lucky to have this mural, as is the whole community. Antoine Trammell, a Madisonville resident and mural Apprentice told me, “Everybody pays more attention to this building. Nobody worried about the building before now—I didn’t—but now people are interested.”
