The following is from DC artist Sean Hennessey:

the next bloomingdale civic association meeting will include discussion about the boxer girl mural.

there seems to be a lot of pressure on the city to destroy the mural and the mayor’s office is considering it. if you are in support of this mural, or at least in support of the artist and property owner, please come to the meeting. in general it seems that dccah has taken a lot of heat this year, especially with public art. i imagine this is a pretty important discussion.
