Trinity Repertory Company mural - Providence, Rhode Island - Murals on Waymarking.com

This large mural painted on the northwest side of Trinity Repertory Company theater for Trinity Repertory Company celebrates the theater and its student matinee program. It is most clearly visible from Fountain Street. Well-above street level, the Waymark coordinates are from the sidewalk in front of Trinity Brewhouse.

The work takes up most of the wall, has a green background, and a golden bar border with scroll work at the corners. To the left, the mural presents a realistic rendering of the main entrance facade on Washington Street as seen from the southwest corner. A bright yellow school bus is painted in front of the theater. Text in somewhat ornate font, from top to bottom, centered and right justified, reads:

Trinity Repertory Co.
Providence
Rhode
Island
THE CREATIVE CAPITAL

"Using our building to make a home for a larger-than-life piece of public art was really important to us as the State Theater of Rhode Island," remarked Trinity's artistic director Curt Columbus. "This collaboration between the theater, Providence Tourism Council and the local artists of Providence Painted Signs will welcome visitors to the Creative Capital for years to come."

The mural also pays tribute to Project Discovery, Trinity Rep's landmark student matinee program celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. The school bus in the mural represents the more than 1.3 million students exposed to the magic of live theater at Trinity Rep.
