About this listen
This episode features the Bear Crossing Sidewalk Mural which spans the walkway from the corner of 5th Ave East and Grove Street to the corner of 5th Ave E. and N. Pine St.
The mural was painted by Diamond Cash and was commissioned as part of a grant the city received from the AARP for a community art project. The city used the funds to fulfill a goal of connecting the main street downtown area with the historic 7th Ave district by installing art along the sidewalks between the two areas. The hopw was that it would entice visitors to make the ½ mile walk and enjoy both sections of town.
Diamond is a native of Hendersonville and has painted several murals for the town, including the City of Four Seasons mural on this audio tour.
She will tell us about the Bear Crossing mural and the inspiration for it.
