THE PROJECT
On July 11, 2015, community members gathered at Emeline Park during the Haverstraw Riverwide Arts & Music Festival to create a new piece of public art.
Participants drew striped bass, turtles, wood ducks, and other animals found in the Hudson River. Their drawings were transferred onto tiles, glazed with color, and more than 100 tiles were fired over the summer.
The public mural was unveiled on June 5th 2016 at 2:00pm, at 40 New Main Street, Haverstraw in front of Village Hall. Visit Village Hall to see its permanent home.
On Sunday, June 4th, 2017, we unveiled The Community Tile Project #2 in front of Village Hall - 40 New Main St. Haverstraw. The theme for this project is SHIPS THAT HAVE SAILED THE HUDSON RIVER.
