The Redmond Commission for Art in Public Places (RCAPP) will host a community paint day in honor of first responders and veterans Saturday, May 25, from 2-6pm, in the tunnel under Highland Avenue (Highway 126) between American Legion Park and Sam Johnson Park. RCAPP will provide basic painting supplies. Community members of all ages are encouraged to bring their creativity and artistic expression to transform the Graffiti Tunnel into a vibrant tribute to our first responders and veterans just in time for Memorial Day.
“Let’s come together to paint and celebrate those heroes who have dedicated themselves to serving our country and keeping our community safe,” states RCAPP Chair Darlene Veenhuizen.
