Community street mural near their local school, Knoxville

See "Branding the boulevard: Inskip mural to establish identity, slow traffic" from the Knoxville News-Sentinel.  From the article:

The design, created by former Inskip Elementary art teacher Kristie Isbell, is intended "to give Inskip an identity," said Liliana Burbano, a public health educator with Knox County Health Department. But it's also intended as a reminder to traffic that "kids are walking to school," to slow and watch more carefully. The idea for it, and the community association itself, grew out of meetings around a Healthy Kids, Healthy Communities grant the Health Department received from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, which helped three Knox County communities — Inskip, Lonsdale and Mascot — organize to make their neighborhoods healthier.

The story includes a video clip too.

It's also a kind of general confirmation of the point that I make that the pavements around civic assets such as schools, parks, libraries and in commercial districts, ought to be engineered to support placemaking and walkability, such as with Belgian Block.
