New Mural at Cottonwood Park Basketball Court

We are in awe of Louisville's new mural located on the half basketball court at Cottonwood Park! Our artist, Liz Maher did an incredible job bringing this court to life with color and movement, reminding us that our public spaces can be beautiful and vital to the health of our community! We hope this piece of art brings joy to many over the coming years.

This project could not have been completed without the help of many dedicated staff in the City of Louisville. We would also like to thank Abby McNeal, Sharon Nemechek, Iris Belensky, John Zamora, Erik Swiatek, Kerry Kramer, Darrick Layton, Aaron Grant, Brand Austin, Noah Ilae, and Geoff Kozlowski for all of their hard work.
