The Flying Crow


The summer is winding down but it seems the crow is flying high. Mural artists Erin Bucklew and Kari Johnson started on the mural project this year thanks in part to a grant from the Lane Arts Council. It was unveiled at the Last Friday Artwalk in July, but this Friday, August 28th it will be revealed in all its glory.
Erin, along with some of our young crows, have added bits and pieces to make the Flying Crow a symbol for all the arts, young people and most of all to the power of creative expression within all of us. It celebrates the artist within each of us and the imagination that inspires us. A tribute to the collaborative energy in the Studios, this project has evolved into a master work with new something to discover each time you look at it.
Come join us at the final summer Artwalk and see other works by Erin Bucklew and Alex D'Souza. Come dance the night away with our eclectic youth bands playing in the parking lot from 6 to 9 pm. Come see why Upstart Crow Studios is the best kept secret in Eugene!
