MURAL ARTS TRASH RECYCLING TRUCK PROJECT
The graphic designs which will wrap a total of ten City of Philadelphia recycling trucks are inspired by – and quote – historical and contemporary textile patterns that celebrate elements of nature, and are drawn from the collection of The Design Center at Philadelphia University. The fabrication of the vinyl graphics and wrapping of the recycling trucks is being overseen by PLUG Digital. The plan was to roll out 10 trucks created with graphic wraps designed by Desiree’ Bender and students from Philly Mural Arts Program’s (MAP) after school Big Picture Program.
Pretty in blue
but wait I counted 12 trucks, but they were only wrapped on the sides of the truck. I’m grateful for the extra two trucks, and who would ever see it from the top so it’s not a big deal, just a matter of curiosity. Anyone know what happened?
Another interesting write-up. Thanks for keeping us in the loop about what\’s happening.
This is so awesome! I love the Mural Arts Project of Philly!
Those two mural trucks with no top were the original trucks created a year ago by the Mural Arts Program kids and were painted, not wrapped in vinyl like the 10 new ones. Isn\’t it great that the new ones are wrapped on all sides including the top?
Thank you. So 12 trucks total, that\’s great. I love that the 10 were wrapped, that\’s very green and probably lasts longer.
