Van Dyke Mural

Where will your project take place?

23838 Van Dyke, Warren, MI 48089

Briefly Describe Your Project Idea:

A mural on the corner of Stephens & Van Dyke will welcome folks driving on Van Dyke into Warren. It will be a symbol of the effort and resources we have been and will continue to put into (South) Warren, an area that has been in need of investment. DDA, TIFA, City of Warren, Anton Art Center.

Why does your community need this project?

In general, there is a lack of focus on art in Warren, which is something we plan to address in a multitude of ways. Our south end, particularly along Van Dyke is a main corridor but needs attention. We have addressed this through development and beautification efforts, and this mural will signal to those entering Warren that the south end Van Dyke Corridor is important and cared about.

What do you hope to achieve through this project?

We hope to continue the beautification of south Warren’s Van Dyke Corridor, have a symbol welcoming folks into Warren, convey a sense of place and investment in our south end Van Dyke Corridor, and have an attraction around which Warren residents can gather and capture and enjoy.
