ZAPP Mural Refresh
We are working with the owners of 2018 Salem Ave. to repaint the ZAPP III Album cover on the side of the building. The muralist also wanted to expand the mural with an image of Roger Troutman at his keyboard, so we have funding for that. The Montgomery County Special Projects Grant is a 0% matching grant for up to $10,000 from The Montgomery County Arts and Culture District, facilitated by Culture Works.
