Cynthia A. Meyer: Meadville, PA road art started as a few flowers 2018-06-08 - Meadville, PA - Photo by Cynthia A. Meyer. A while back I sent you an email about the road sign art that is in Meadville Pennsylvania. The road department takes old road signs and makes an ongoing mural out of them. I wondered then, as I do now, why other areas can’t do the same. Granted, Meadville's road sign art started out as just a few over sized flowers, above and has flourished into a whole scene to even include a few animated items. But it has become quite the attraction in itself. - Cynthia A. Meyer Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Any notions? - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
