Murals
River Gallery Studio & Keep Toledo/Lucas County Beautiful
Keep Toledo/Lucas County Beautiful and the River Gallery Studio are joining forces to expand opportunities for public art in Northwest Ohio. Together, we’re reimagining Toledo’s public spaces as vibrant, meaningful places where art brings people together.
Public art is endlessly beneficial to our community!
- Enriches the beauty of our neighborhoods
- Celebrates our culture and history
- Creates meaningful opportunities for local artists
- Strengthens our economy by supporting creative jobs and promoting tourism
- Builds community pride and a shared sense of place
100 Public Art Works
The 100 Public Art Works project is a creative partnership between River Gallery Studio and Keep Toledo / Lucas County Beautiful, built around one big idea, transforming Toledo’s public spaces into public art. Led by artist and community leader Dean Davis, the initiative envisions our city as an open-air gallery, where every mural inspires, connects and creates economic impact for Greater Toledo.
Our goal is simple: to create 100 works of public art across Toledo and Lucas County.
This collaboration takes the idea of “beautification” beyond clean streets and green spaces. Together, we’re adding color, culture, and creativity to the mix. We’re turning walls, underpasses, and overlooked corners into meaningful landmarks that promote both environmental stewardship and community spirit.
