Art Rat Alebrije at City Hall

“It’s Here: The Arts, Entrepreneurship + Placemaking” is a collaboration between the Art in Roanoke (Roanoke Arts Commission), the Roanoke Cultural Endowment, and the City of Roanoke, Virginia – Government’s department of economic development.

Forty artists were commissioned by the Roanoke Arts Commission to create their proposed portraits of community members who have made an impact in the city.  Brian Counihan’s Art Rat alebrije stands proudly in the collection.

The project is available to view on the first floor of the Noel C. Taylor Municipal Building through September 2024.
