Quilt Squares Project
This project is truly a visual celebration of who we are as a community. It celebrates the fact that a community is a tapestry of people -- all of whom have added to the success of Baraboo.
Look closely at either end of Baraboo's "People Are the Fabric of the Community" mural on Oak Street and you'll see beautiful painted "quilt squares". Those blocks are where you can honor someone (or a pet) by having their name added to a square, along with three (only three!) descriptive words about them.
Each square is 10 inches by 10 inches, and is painted directly on the wall and sealed with a translucent acrylic paint glaze to protect the lettering and retain the design elements of the original mural.
Cost: $100 / square
Since these materials are water-based and cannot be used outside when temperatures are below 50 degrees, we will wait for warm weather before the lettering artist, Morgan McArthur, will complete the painting of the name plates. We will let you know when the name plates have been installed.
