Taylor's Project Sites Post 1

These two pictures are of the spot where my original project was intended to go. It is next to Soundstage (or whatever its called now) on the well traveled Texas Street in downtown Shreveport. The area is apparently called Artisan's Court, according to the name on the wall. There is already that mural type thing on the left wall. Also, there is graffiti type art on the ground and back wall, but some of the left wall and the right wall are still bare! Events like concerts and art shows used to be hosted here too. From all of this I would think that it is pretty open to art events and projects, so we would either need to talk to the owners of the old Soundstage building or the city to figure out who owns it. I have photos of 3 other potential wall sites and 2 fence sites, but Blogger is being difficult and won't let me post them, so I will just show them in class. Though, I can give a bit of info about them here:

• Wall at a business called Nall's Auto Glass (which is potentially abandoned. I never see anyone there) located on the Corner of Common and Crockett in downtown. It is near the old fire station, which is the new SRAC.
• Wall at an abandoned tire store on Common St. just before the Viaduct that Bruce Allen and others spoke of in class.
• A wooden wall directly across from the Robinson Film Center on Texas street. It already has some art on it.
• The fence that surrounds South Highlands Elementary on Line Ave. If we used this, we could get those children involved somehow.
• The fence on Youree Drive that surrounds a park or playground just before Preston Avenue (I believe Hope already posted about this one).
