Art abounds on #FLAdventureCoast 🎨🧜‍♀️🖌

This month we have seen creativity come to life, from the @mermaidtaletrail 🧜‍♀️ to this Spring's mobile murals, including some amazing works dedicated to our hometown heroes.

Stop by the Brooksville Welcome Center at 205 E. Fort Dade Avenue to pick up a map of the mobile murals, or discover the Florida Mermaid Trail and check out all the amazing art along the way. 🎨

📸1: Mobile Mural Tour guide
📸2&3: Mural dedication to Jerome Brown, located at City Government of Brooksville Florida (201 Howell Ave.)
📸4&5: Mural of former Brooksville Mayor Frankie Burnett, located at the Frederick Kelly Elks Lodge #1270.
📸6&7 Artist Yasaman Mehrsa working on a new permanent mural, located in Hernando Park.

What an amazing day to celebrate the honorable Reverend Frankie Burnett, former mayor and councilman of Brooksville!

The Arts Council is so proud to have sponsored the new mural of this local hero through our Community Arts Grant. We are grateful to have the support of both Hernando County and the City of Brooksville in our efforts to increase public art in all corners of our community. Thank you to Mayor Bell, Commissioner Alloco, John Mitton (chair of TRAC), and all of the county and city staff who came out today for the unveiling.

Special thanks to the artist, Solomon Gavin, who like Frankie Burnett grew up in South Brooksville. A huge thank you to the Nolen family and Reverend Ailes for facilitating this public art project, to the Burnett family and Elks Lodge #1270 team for their trust and collaboration, and to brooksvillemainstreetfl for donating the canvas and primer for the mural!

Frankie Burnett passed away on February 19, 2021. We are thinking of the Burnett family as we approach the second anniversary of Frankie’s death and hope this mural reminds the community of the huge legacy he has left behind - people over politics!!

#hernandoarts #communityartsgrant #artgrant #mobilemural #publicart #localart #communityart #floridaart #solomongavin #frankieburnett #peopleoverpolitics #thisishernando #brooksvillefl

Such a joyous occasion celebrating with family, friends, and fans the life of a beloved local man. And what could be better than honoring Jerome Brown during his birthday week and when his Eagles are preparing for the Super Bowl?

Last month, we introduced our newest public art program, Art on Fire, in collaboration with the City of Brooksville and the Brooksville Fire Department. Design proposals are now being considered for the second round of fire hydrants to be painted in Brooksville! 🔥

It’s spring! In Florida at least! For today’s #FridayIntroduction I’ll share something about myself and restaurants:
1. I prefer mom and pop over chain restaurants
2. I love outdoor seating
3. I like to order something different than hubby in case I don’t like my order. This is a safety precaution bc…
4. I often don’t like what I ordered.
5. I like to order things I don’t like to cook at home, like fish tacos.
6. I actually don’t like seafood too much but I do like salmon and fish tacos
7. I love when restaurants have murals or interesting decor/ambiance, like this dolphin painting!
8. I WILL leave a Google or Yelp review 9/10x. I will not mince words. 🤣🤣 (Hubby quotes one particular review comment from 10+years ago back to me!!🤣🤣🤣).
9. I’ve just discovered Find Me Gluten Free app, and in addition to finding us #glutenfree restaurants for our youngest, it’s also directed us to restaurants that are better in quality than I’ve usually found on vacations! Yum-o!
10. I worked as a waitress for 1 week. I prefer to be on the patron-side of the table. 🤣 but seriously, serving is hard work, and more power to you if you can do it and enjoy it!
Well, that’s my #fridayintro restaurant-style! Any questions for me about restaurants?!?

This neon sign was created by the artists of Adept Neon in Largo! It was donated to the Arts Council as an art installation at Art in the Park last month, where it was displayed in front of the Student Art Tent. Now, it has found a new home at the Brooksville Art Gallery, where it will be lit for the opening receptions of new gallery exhibits! Thank you so much to nobleglassandneon and unearththedog for this amazing sign - it will be put to great use advertising hernandoarts events!

Each and every one of you are important pieces in my art universe, and I’d be eternally grateful for you to join me on my journey. Thanks for jammin’ with me!”⁠

Posted withregram • hernandoarts The perfect spot for the kdartdesigns mobile mural! It features some of the original #weekiwacheemermaids along with a native manatee. It’s the perfect mural to go in front of the Welcome Center at Hernando Park, which is the starting point of the Florida Mermaid Trail! You can stop by to get a trail map, as well as other brochures and literature for fun things to do on the fladventurecoast. The center is also home to brooksvillemainstreetfl, our partner for the Mobile Mural project. 🧜‍♀️ #hcfac #hernandoarts #brooksvillemainstreet #mobilemural #fladventurecoast #floridalife #floridaart #muralsofinstagram #muralart #thisishernando #ilovehernando

Always coming across interesting murals on our travels. Saw this one as we were heading home from a muddy day out on the trails (check out the video!). #muralmonday —————————————————————————————⁣

One of the beautiful new murals on brooksvillemainstreetfl by local artist, #GaryDuquette ✨ You might look at this and see a painting or a photo op, but I look at this and see months of teamwork & perseverance - cutting through red tape & finding ways around ordinances. I see PASSION, a love for the arts, a love for Brooksville, and the power of the people. I know there were more meetings with more people than even I can imagine to make this beautiful work of art happen. I’m really proud of EVERYONE involved, and truly am inspired by you all. Thank you for believing in #Brooksville and making it just a little more beautiful ❤️ #mainstreet #localart #revitalization #muralordinance #communityart #downtownbrooksville #believeinbrooksville #brooksvillemainstreet
