"Queuing (20 Brattle)" is a new mural by local artist Kit Collins (
www.kitschcollins.com) that will be painted live at Spaceus in Harvard Square and incorporate the faces of the public.
This mural is a continuation of an existing series that depicts scores of people in ink and watercolor, on a larger scale than ever before. The project is hosted by Spaceus, a workspace, art gallery, and community space based in Cambridge. (

Unlike previous works in this series, "Queuing (20 Brattle)" will literally incorporate members of the public. To fund this project, Spaceus is hosting portrait sessions: for $25, folks can chat with the artist and have themselves or a friend painted into the mural. Signups are online (
