The Regional Arts and Culture Council, in partnership with Portland Parks & Recreation and Prosper Portland, have selected artist Molly Mendoza to create a mural in early 2020 on the exterior of a new bathroom facility in Lents Park. Molly has created a preliminary design of the mural (see image above) and is interested in hearing from the community in and around the Lents neighborhood to inform and inspire the final design.

We will be at the Lents Fair on Sunday August 11th from 11-4 PM with artist Molly Mendoza to seek feedback from members of the Lents community for an upcoming mural project at Lents Park. Molly will be drawing portraits of folks while listening to their stories about the Lents community. Come visit us!

If you are unable to join us, but would like to fill out a survey to contribute to the process, take the survey here!
