Blue Zones Project—Pottawatomie County, in partnership with Absentee Shawnee Housing Authority; Community Renewal Friendship House; the City of Shawnee; and local indigenous artist, art curator, and educator Tony A. Tiger facilitated the installation of a painted crosswalk on July 24th. The purpose of the newly painted crosswalk is to build community pride, establish a sense of place, and encourage traffic calming. This eye-catching public art installation serves to improve the built environment for everyone, especially the student pedestrians walking to Pleasant Grove School.
Currently, we are at 30,630,576 steps!
