With the latest additions of the âA Great Day To Be Outsideâ mural and the Emerald Loop Project to the City of Greenville, North Carolina, the Eastern North Carolina (ENC) Alliance offers its insight on why artwork is essential for local community and the areaâs economic growth.
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Greenville ENC Alliance Steve Weathers said community art in Greenville is beneficial to the East Carolina University community and the entirety of eastern North Carolina. âPlacemakingâ is what Weathers said he and the ENC Alliance calls the process of building up the community in an aesthetic way.
