About the event:
In honor of Ayșenur’s birthday on July 27th, we want to invite our community to paint a mural in her memory. The mural is designed and created by James Hesketh, a Seattle based artist. The mural will be drawn in ‘paint-by-numbers’ style, making it easy for anyone - even children - to join in and be a part of making the mural come to life.
When: Saturday, July 25th | 10 am - 2 pm
Where: Cherry Street Village | 720 25th Ave, Seattle, WA 98122
