🎨 🍁 Introducing 'This Is the Place'

We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful fall morning to install Maplewood Village’s newest piece of public art! ☀️🍂

Crisp air, clear skies, and a smooth installation completed in under three hours!

After a long journey with a few hiccups along the way, we’re thrilled to finally share a stunning mural by local artist Jocelyn Fine.

Inspired by Maplewood’s natural beauty and the remarkable connections within tree communities, this vibrant piece celebrates the resilience, creativity, and sense of community that make Maplewood so special. ❤️

📍 Come admire it at 164 Maplewood Avenue, beside Village Coffee!
