Carbondale Saluki murals celebrate SIU partnership
SIU and the Carbondale Chamber of Commerce oversee four annual murals across town since 2022. Antonio Martinez of SIU led designs for the four pieces including a Big Chill pharaoh mural and an eclipse Saluki, with on site adjustments for porous walls. The project aims to boost town spirit and inspire local artists, citing Boo by’s graffiti wall as an example of community street art.
