Mark Howard at Lorain Community College
RED DOT Project artist Mark Howard‘s new mural for Lorain County Community College’s Stocker Arts Center is being installed and will be “unveiled” on July 23, 2007 at the Stocker Arts Center “Spotlight” event, where the 2007 -2008 Stocker Arts Center Season will also be released. The mural was designed to “tell the story of the Stocker Arts Center” and to paint a picture of what happens at the Stocker Arts Center, for the public and students in the Arts and Humanities department. The mural project was part of an innovative learning opportunity created for painting students at LCCC, who learned about the process of creating public art by assisting Mark as he executed the mural. Mark Howard has created numerous other public art installations in Northeast Ohio, including murals at The Cleveland Public Library, The Cleveland School of the Arts, Oriana House, and Rocky River Middle School. He is best known for his 600′ laser cut steel public art installation at Cleveland Hopkins Airport, and is currently working on several integrated art projects for Cleveland’s RTA Euclid Corridor Project.
