New Anna Mraz Mural in Queen Village
Beautiful new mural from Philly-based artist Anna Mraz created this past month at 4th and Bainbridge streets in Queen Village, outside Sweet Eden!
Y’all might remember that for the last few years this wall was the location of Brooks Bell’s Bernie Sander’s mural, created in 2015. And as many of you commented on that Bernie mural post, before that it was a mural tribute to a late Philadelphian by the name of John Weir. After reading your comments in 2015 and asking around, I remember never coming to understand how or why that memorial was removed. But in our “City of Murals,” if John’s family and loved ones did want to remember him in Philly’s public space again, I can’t imagine that we couldn’t find the right help to make that happen. And for what it’s worth I’d offer any help or connections I have. So please feel free to reach out if you’re reading this.
