Briarcrest kiosk updated with new mural and bench

Shoreline, WALocal News

Briarcrest's kiosk has received a vibrant mural update from local artist Reane Joy Pagdilao, who originally painted it in 2020. The previous mural, known for its colorfulness, deteriorated due to weather exposure and graffiti. Fortunately, Pagdilao was available to create a new design that is both cheerful and inviting. The updated mural aims to enhance the experience for residents and visitors entering Hamlin Park while continuing to provide essential neighborhood information. Such local art initiatives not only beautify public spaces but also foster a sense of community pride and connection.

The kiosk functions as a vital resource for information, promoting engagement within the neighborhood. Encouraging local artists to contribute to public art projects supports community identity and cultural vibrancy. Overall, the mural update signifies a commitment to maintaining a welcoming environment in Briarcrest.
