SUMMARY:Van Go Mural Unveiling at J.Lynn Bridal and Suiting
DESCRIPTION:Join us at J.Lynn Bridal and Suiting as we unveil the newest mural painted by Van Go’s Apprentice Artists from The Arts Train! This event is free and open to the public and will be held on-site at J.Lynn Bridal and Suiting at 731 Massachusetts Street on Friday\, January 30th 4:30pm-6:00pm. \n*This is a pet free event \n“Intertwined” \nThe sparrow is often a symbol of friendship\, love\, and teamwork- all values of a strong marriage. They are a common\, humble and unassuming; not flamboyant or ostentatious. The birds are resilient\, hard working\, and adaptable to many environments. In this design\, they work both as pairs and as a community bound together by a rhythmic ribbon. The floral theme is both an element of nature\, and an intentional depiction of the intricate lacework found in traditional wedding dresses. This motif was borrowed directly from one of the gowns found in this very shop. It provides the viewer with a sense of delicate movement throughout the design. Combined with the ribbon\, it circulates the viewer’s eye around the composition. The central arch in this design provides support and balance to the largely symmetrical composition. Historically\, the stone arch had a keystone which holds everything in place. Here\, we see a birdhouse in that position. The home for the sparrows provides the strength to this structure. With its peaked roof and prominent position\, the archway resembles a large ring thereby further reinforcing the traditional symbol of unity. \n \nVan Go 2025 Fall JAMS Apprentice Artists \nSawyer Breneman\nTristan Chavez\nSamantha Greenfield\nJubilee Jacob\nRo O’Leary\nNiko Munoz\nMary Ramirez\nFletcher Sanborn\nAlex Van Vleck\nAlaric Wheeler \n
