Southlake Town Hall has a new accessory this week as the City's first mural titled "I Believe in Southlake," was unveiled on Tuesday, December 8. Inspired by the public art displays in New Orleans, it was developed to show some of the many reasons why Southlake is vibrant and unforgettable. Mayor Laura Hill said City officials started brainstorming ways to bring more people to Southlake Town Square and enjoy with their families. "I am so proud of our City. Southlake is so many things to so many people, and I love that this piece of public art captures all the things that make it unique and special. I can't wait to see the pictures on social media; I think it's a great way for people to make memories in a place that all of us love to visit and enjoy," she said. The city is putting the final touches on the newly erected display to help ensure safety for those taking keepsake photos in front of it. The mural, designed by Southlake's Marketing and Graphic Design Coordinator Missy Saunders, includes beloved staples of the Southlake community and Texas. It is the first of its kind Southlake Public Art initiative. The painting, which is estimated to be 15 feet wide and 8.5 feet tall, was further developed by local artist Liz Bonham. It's located on the building's northwest side, across the street from Rockfish. This initiative is also part of the Southlake Arts Master Plan, which includes creating engaging public spaces that stimulate discussion, cultivate patrons of the arts, and celebrates Southlake's history.
