As a special coda to the NEON District’s 10th anniversary celebrations, Downtown Norfolk Council is issuing NEON at Ten: A History of Public Art in Norfolk’s Arts District. The 244-page hardcover book documents the evolution of NEON’s street art from very early days to now. Featuring more than 200 works of art, the catalogue offers stunning photographs of murals and deeply personal essays from important contributors to the District, such as Careyann Weinberg and Charles Rasputin. Edited by Rachel McCall and Cheryl White, NEON at Ten memorializes the artists, collaborations and community spirit that shaped a decade of NEON.
