Wednesday Video Spotlight: Public Arts Project 66

Wayne Coyne, frontman of the Oklahoma City-based psychedelic rock band The Flaming Lips, has joined a Kickstarter campaign to raise money for a public art project along Route 66 right here in Oklahoma. Check out this video of him touting the project, which is posted above in the Wednesday Video Spotlight. 

The money will fund the creation of several elaborate murals to be created by El Reno artist Rick Sinnett and his crew.

Through Public Arts Project 66, Sinnett and Dwelling Spaces are partnering to create 11 Oklahoma-inspired murals along the Mother Road in our fair state.

The first mural in the series, “Indian Warrior,” was funded by Dwelling Spaces and has been painted on Route 66 in Tulsa’s Blue Dome Arts District on Rose’s Second Hand Pawn Shop.

Sinnett and crew will paint the second mural, “Guardian of the Mother Road,” on the 50-foot-by-50-foot Drive-In Saloon in El Reno.
