ABOUT PAINT BY TUNNELS
Maple Valley is a beautiful place to live, work and play. Paint By Tunnels is making it even more! We believe that our community is full of creative people. We believe that when we all come together to make something beautiful, our collective world becomes a little bit brighter; hearts soften, smiles proliferate, laughter is more frequently heard. Art is our vehicle of choice. We believe that an annual mural festival along our beloved Cedar to Green Rivers Trail will be a highlight to be shared by everyone.
Picture a day when members of the community and visitors walk the trail, meet and talk with artists, pick up a cup of paint and paint a section of a mural. Groups of teens stop for a selfie--or three. Local musicians are performing nearby. Food trucks, booths representing local businesses, face painters, and more performers are at the trail access points along the way.
Our Paint By Tunnels project goals are to:
- Add fun, colorful, collaboratively created murals to the Cedar to Green Rivers Trail;
- Encourage use of the trail that runs through Maple Valley;
- Showcase local arts organizations and businesses in Maple Valley;
- Highlight collaboration in the community; and
- Bring the community together via public art.
