Skechers Ocean Mural Installation Adventure

In the spirit of catching up, wanted to share our installation adventures with the awesome Skechers store mosaic mural from last week. After shipping the 50+ mosaic sections down, the install team flew to Manhattan Beach and put up the mural without a hitch. Lots of love, blood, and sweat went into this mural (no tears). We are proud and excited to have it up. Grand opening and mural reveal pics coming soon! 

Install team: Rachel Rodi (lead), Carol Bevilacqua, Denise Hart, Sophia Othman and Jesse Medina, joined by Emily Juiliano and Molly Benson
