Greater Augusta Arts Council: Sculpture and Mural Cleaning

In Richmond County, there are 15 sculptures along the Augusta Sculpture Trail and 27 “Art the Box” installations--Traffic Signal Control Cabinets (TSCCs) that have been transformed into four-sided street murals by local artists. They need a little TLC with soapy water, sponges, maybe a little scrub brush here and there. We would also like an up close assessment of their condition at each site. We would love to have teams of volunteers who would take a photo of the sculptures and boxes prior to cleaning to document their condition, give them a wash, taking a few photos of that process, then take another photo of each side after the cleaning for documentation, and write down an assessment of their condition after cleaning. Based on this work, we will confer with City of Augusta Traffic Engineering and Parks and Recreation on any further maintenance needed.
