Standing in what appears to be a black door frame in front of a green wall covered in bright pink roses, this lady has turned her head to acknowledge an acquaintance. On this hot summer day in the nation's capital, this lady chose to wear a white bare back dress with pink roses spread throughout the fabric. Auntie Mame 52 is holding a white purse in her left hand and wearing a pair of white high heel shoes as well as stunning cluster earrings.


Drew Mandigo created the first seventeen Downtown Rideau Mural Boxes installed in late 2016, from his Auntie Mame Series. Stunning in their originality, Drew’s works feature digital collages of ladies dressed in 1950’s and 60’s fashions, and are inspired by the spirit of the 1958 film of the same name. Several new pieces were released as part of the 2017 mural box expansion project, including one featuring a lady trapped in a glass dome, surrounded by butterflies, and a unique piece dubbed ‘the upside-down lady’.
