Local artist, educator and owner of Not Your Average "Paint and Sip" mobile unit, James Reynolds, designed and prepared the mural concept for today's event at Court Street Plaza downtown. "This season, more than any other, is about appreciating and celebrating our community," Reynolds said. "Our mural will be a wonderful expression of Cincinnati's vibrancy, diversity and fraternity."The event on Saturday afternoon was created to invite and inspire local residents to come together as a community to share and express their inner artist.Court Street Plaza served as today's canvas, which produced a community-created mural honoring the city of Cincinnati.Along with the community-wide mural painting, there were also performances by local musicians, coffee stands, and even take-home crafts, inspired by the new mural.The free event was one of several community-produced holiday events in the FOUND series. FOUND is a collection of creative and engaging holiday events aimed at bringing the community together in Cincinnati's urban core.You can catch a glimpse of the new mural at the storefront below the Stanley & More Flats located at 11. E. Court Street.You can find more events produced by FOUND here.
