Southern Sounds: Hear My Train A Coming
Linda Frye Burnham / 04:57 PM

There's a lovely story on the Web site of the Coleman Center for the Arts in York, Alabama, about a mural just painted by artist Tierney Malone, titled "Southern Sounds: Hear My Train A Coming." It incorporates many of the things Malone learned about the area while he spent the year painting. Malone has intentionally left the mural with a blank spot, the final piece belonging to local young people to decide. The Coleman Center will work with students enrolled in their summer Drawing and 2D Design Class to come up with the final element of the York mural. The Coleman Center is showing drawings Malone made during the mural process. Opening festivities will take place on Saturday, May 10th. A celebration of Malone’s mural and a cookout will begin at 4 PM in downtown York. The exhibition opening will continue in the Coleman Center gallery from 6 to 8 PM.
