On this week’s episode of Out and About, Executive Director Mae Gilliland Wright from Big Picture Peoria joins host Jenn Gordon to talk about the dedication of eight augmented reality enabled murals honoring notable past Peorians (and those who called the area home) who have changed our community and our world. Using a special phone app, the murals (which are each created by local artists) will come to life through a video featuring local actors portraying the subject of the mural.
The event will take place outside the Peoria Public Library in downtown Peoria on October 15th at 10 AM. After the unveiling, the public is invited to attend an exhibit reception inside the library featuring artwork from the mural artists.
