What Makes this event different?
Main Street Covington is particularly interested in site specific artwork with potential to: celebrate Covington’s rich history, introduce color, serve as a backdrop for photos, and provide an invitation for spectators to become part of Downtown Covington’s experience. The piece must be durable and suitable for outdoors with the ability to withstand the elements of the local climate as well as interaction with the public.
