video: GoLocalTV: Public Art Transforms Weybosset Building Facade
Wednesday, June 15, 2016
GoLocalTV was at the old Providence National Bank building on Weybosset Street -- the building facade which has been an eyesore for the past decade. Now, it is being transformed into a public art exhibit through a partnership between The Avenue Concept and Paolino Properties.
Just weeks ago the facade was being used as a makeshift shelter by the homeless. Now it is being recreated.
GoLocal talked to artist Philippe LeJeune about the project and more.
