Artists on Board!

Artists to beautify the 700 block of Fourth Avenue in support of the City of Olympia during the COVID pandemic. Heidi Zarghami will be adding her monarch butterflies to bring awareness to this transformative time for the local community.

“The Olympia Artspace Alliance and the Olympia Downtown Alliance, using $9,000 from the city, has rolled out a plan to have artists beautify Downtown Olympia’s boarded-up exteriors with murals, said Todd Cutts, executive director of the ODA.
Cutts said the group has agreements with five storefronts: Exile Tattoo on Legion Way, Olympia Tattoo on Capitol Way, the former Mills & Mills Funeral Home location on Franklin Street, Cryptatropa on Fourth Avenue, and a space in the 700 block of Fourth Avenue that was once a cafe.”
