and painted ceramic bench tops &
seating areas. The mural was created
by Andrew Reid and team. The benches
were created by Carlos Alves and

celebrates community diversity, and
depicts stories of past & present
with images of the people, flora,
fauna, and industry which have
shaped the unique character of

“Delray Progress,” along Atlantic

under-used outdoor seating area to
an artful and welcoming
“pocket-park” for residents and
visitors to the County Courthouse,
Delray Beach library and downtown
Delray Beach to enjoy. |
