George’s Lounge Public Art & Design Contest!

If you’ve been reading here for a while, you’ve undoubtably seen a lot of pictures from the dark and dated interior of George’s Lounge. It’s our favorite local dive bar- the kind of cheap-drink joint where you can pop in on any given night and run into friends. The kind of people you actually like running into. Being a dive bar, George’s curb appeal leaves a lot to be desired. But guess what? They’re hosting a contest to local Canton (Ohio) artists and designers to redesign the sidewalk wall of the classic hangout.

Check out more information on the contest here. And if you’re interested in peeking at the inside of George’s, as well as other Canton shenanigans, you can check out my “life” archives here.
