ELF Art Project Draws Community-Wide Support

Actual size: 12" x 12"

The Euless Library Foundation ("ELF") has commissioned a hand-painted ceramic tile mural depicting Euless history.  The Himes Log House tile, pictured here, is just the first piece of this one-of-a-kind artistic project. The final project will include more than 250 tiles in varying sizes. Each tile is an individually created work of art.

Designed to commemorate places and events in Euless history, this project offers opportunities for community support at a variety of levels.

To see samples of other work by artist Marion Grebow, visit her gallery at gallery.mac.com/mariongrebow, or visit the Euless Public Library to see the tiles below on display. As new tiles are received, they will be on display at the library until the permanent wall is installed in late 2010 or early 2011. Help us bring Euless history to life.
