Downtown Together

Donation protected

In the back of my mind, I’ve always wanted to have something painted on our alley way wall but I’ve never known exactly what  I figured someday it would become clear. That someday? Is here.

Many of you know about the sticker campaign I designed - the striped heart (each colored stripe represents a different signature cupcake flavor), followed by the word ‘TOGETHER’. While I was hand-cutting my umpteenth one, it dawned on me. The beautiful blank wall - needs Downtown ❤️ Together. 

We all know and love Lulu’s Love masterpiece - theeye catching symphony of hearts at Park and Humboldt. The same muralist created the striped ‘Unity’ mural next to Shuberts. A little lesser known, this artist did the ‘Live’ mural on one of the new apartment complexes over on Walnut. Without a whole lot of digging, this local artist is Jedrek Speer. 


I contacted Jedrek, talked to him about my idea and he would love to recreate my ‘Downtown❤️Together’ on a grand scale. I was very honest with him - as in....‘I have this idea but the reality is there’s a slim to none chance this will happen now because any money coming in, is going directly out to rent.’ As expected, and like everyone else, he understands. If and when I have the extra funds to follow through with my idea, his cost is $2,700. 


I know very little about Jedrek’s personal life  but I know that he has a young family and like so many of us, this is cannot be an easy time. I would like nothing more than to surprise him with the money so he could create a forever downtown mural. 


If I can get 270 people to donate $10 each...together we can support a local artist to help beautify downtown Chico even more than it already is.
