The @beforeidiewall art project comes to St. Pete during #shineonstpete!
With over 1,000 installations in more than 70 countries, complete the sentence “Before I die I want to…” on the side of the future #independentbar later this month!
Thanks to #LeadershipTampaBay for making this possible. 📷 by Trevor Coe of the #beforeidiewall in Savannah, GA. #beforeidie
#shineonstpete 2015 inaugural artist, @yalaford will also be painting a new mural entitled, ‘The Golden Wave,’ which is the inspiration for her latest student project. ‘Muralopia’ is a children’s book written by Ya and presented in collaboration with the #stpetersburglibrary and the @moreanarts. ‘Muralopia’ will showcase students from diverse families who learn the power of bridging their differences to create a brighter future in their community through art.
Look for #yalaford on the back of the #moreanartscenter September 2nd – 5th! It’s another #shinebrightidea.
Leading the #shineonstpete Community Mural, art mentors @chadmize and @olesonart team up with 10 students from #GibbsHighSchool and other local artists and educators to transform 600′ of concrete barricades along the #PinellasTrail starting at 20th Street S (off 3rd Ave S) during #LaborDayWeekend!
Special thanks to @stpete_fl for sponsoring this project. What a #shinebrightidea!

During #shineonstpete 2016, @peprallyinc and @engagecurrent’s Laundry Project will be bringing the #cleancampaign to a St. Petersburg laundromat for the first time!
CLEAN is a series of colorful laundromat murals aimed at delivering a positive message through the power of street art. CLEAN murals are painted in low-income communities where the #LaundryProject also provides free laundry services, children’s entertainment and more to turn laundromats into community centers.
It’s a #shinebrightidea! More details on dates and location soon.

And our 2016 #shineonstpete Open Call winners are Ink Werkz Crew, a killer collaboration by local staples Reid Jenkins @reidjenkinsart, Scott Hillis @hillis727, and Sovoth Chan @duke_727! Look for them in the @edgedistrict!
Here is another mural by #shineonstpete artist @arlin_graff painted recently in Atlanta for @outerspaceproject, the brainchild of #shineonstpete 2015 artist @gregmike. Can’t wait to see #arlin’s creation for the #600block!
#shineonstpete artist @pantonio.o is a Portuguese painter whose swarms of fish, birds and other animals flow and weave to bring flat walls to life.
Excited to see what he brings to the @edgedistrict in September!
