COOPER MALL

MURALS

The Cooper Mall Murals project aimed to beautify a high visibility corner in the heart of town. Collaborating with the developer, we enhanced the aesthetics of the construction fencing, transforming it into an inviting space for art display.

We commissioned two large murals from local and regional artists, allocated space for The Aspen Historical Society and Jazz Aspen to present their community history, and collaborated with the City of Aspen to revive vibrancy in the Cooper Mall Block.
