Big thanks to Tumblr for including Jim Power, aka ‘Mosaic Man’ in their blog Spotlight under the Artists category.
If you’re new here, thanks for stopping by and checking out Jim’s work!
In short, for over 25 years, Jim has created one of the largest and longest lasting public arts projects with his Legendary Mosaic Trail. The trail of whimsical mosaic designs on lamp poles, planters, sidewalks and storefronts throughout New York City are some of the most recognizable and universally acclaimed works by a local artist.
Jim is currently running a campaign on crowdfunding site Indiegogo to help rebuild a portion of the Trail that has been damaged or vandalized over the years. The campaign is winding down, but you can still help by contributing or spreading the word.
You can read more about Jim and the campaign, see some of the awesome perks available, and donate here:

Thanks in advance for your generosity!
And stay in touch for all the latest from The Mosaic Man!

ONCE AGAIN, THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS DONATED AND HELPED SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT “THE LEGENDARY MOSAIC TRAIL” CAMPAIGN ON INDIEGOGO!!!
SO, we now have over 55,000 followers across Twitter, Facebook, and Tumblr, and only ~125 donors so far? Let’s go, folks. You know what to do.
IF EVERY ONE OF THOSE FOLLOWERS GAVE $2, THIS PROJECT WOULD BE ON HYPERSPEED AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD WOULDN’T KNOW WHAT HIT ’EM.
Otherwise, really? Tweets and Likes are nice, and appreciated, but $2? That’s it. Can’t make it any easier…
Support the Trail, or instead of unique works of art along the streets of NYC, you’ll just have the neon glow of a 7/11 sign to enjoy…
LET’S. GO. Or rather, LET’S GOGO!
:-D

Fitting:
Here, you’ll find things that you may or may not be interested in about the East Village and other parts of New York City. Appreciating what’s here while it’s still here. Remembering what’s no longer here. Wishing some things weren’t here that are here.
THANK YOU to EV Grieve for the write-up.
It takes a village…
You know what to do, neighborhood.
