ASPHALT ART BRIGHTENS BROAD STREET

BY THEA WILSHIRE

Congratulations to Stacy Waddell and her Globe High School students (current and graduates) who successfully completed the crosswalk mural in front of the American Legion Henry Berry Post #4. It is hoped this asphalt art will honor our veterans, brighten that part of town, and encourage people to slow down when driving on Broad Street. This project was greatly anticipated after several delays related to street work and the fire. Working with the American Legion, Stacy designed the mural, then AJ Sprauge and the American Legion under Commander Rich Moran purchased the paint. Tiffany and Thomas Stallings cut the three large plastic stencils which honor a WW2, Viet Nam, and modern day soldier. The City of Globe partnered with the project, advised about asphalt paint, and helped to close the street for safety. The student painters included Madeline Belling, Cassandra Cummings, Johnathon Demers, Jada Dillon, Alora Whipple, and Bella Winckel. This is one of the “I Art Globe!” 12-projects-in-12-months initiatives. Thank you to our veterans for their service and the creative partnerships that facilitated this project.
