Our story
In October 2012, we had the opportunity to travel to Philadelphia and work with local artist, Isaiah Zagar. Primarily known for his Magic Gardens, Zagar shared with us not only his artwork, but also his process, technique and the impact his art has had on the Philadelphia community.
Returning to Emmaus, we were left with the strong desire to create a community art piece here. Several meetings later, we cemented this desire and turned it into a plan.

wE WILL BE CREATING A COMMUNITY MOSAIC IN EMMAUS, WITH THE HELP OF THE EMMAUS COMMUNITY AND ISAIAH ZAGAR HIMSELF.
The mosaic will be on the rotunda wall of the Emmaus Public Library, and will provide art and beauty to our town's already rich culture. We are thrilled about the collaboration between us, the library and Zagar! This joint effort is going to produce an artwork that evokes both delight and pride. It will become a landmark in Emmaus.
This is an enormous undertaking, and we will be glad to have the town's help and support.
