‘This is what community looks like', Volunteers unite in East Dayton corridor clean-up
DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) – There was a community clean-up in the East Dayton Corridor this Saturday. The clean up was held on April 26, in preparation for ARTeBRATION and the upcoming Brick City Mural Festival at Front Street Art Studio and Galleries. Volunteers painted over last season's murals; and cleared public spaces of overgrowth, litter and other debris. Their work touched many different areas of the city. This work will not only make Dayton more visually appealing but it will greatly help local wildlife and nature. It was organized and supported by Brick City Artworks, Good Shepherd Ministries, East Side Riders, Front Street, Kool Beanz Cafe and others. Supplies were provided, but volunteers were asked to bring a pair of work/garden gloves if they already owned them. After the clean up the participants enjoyed coffee and treats.
