The "Bridging Two Rivers" Project

The "Bridging Two Rivers" Project Bridging Two Rivers is a community powered artistic endeavor directed by J. Dante' Bard and Troy Duff, and is funded by the Metro Arts Commission.

Dante' Bard and Troy Duff. The Bridging Two Rivers project is funded by the Metro Nashville Arts Commission, and empowers the community through the help of Papa Turney's Old Fashioned Hickory Smoked BBQ and Phat Bites deli. Bridging Two Rivers will be a set of murals done by artists Troy Duff and Dante Bard at the greenway tunnel at Two Rivers Skate Park. The idea is to gather the involved member

s of the community and gather input on their ideas of placemaking and repurposing in respect to their community and history. From there these ideas will be translated into artwork and be painted at the greenway to reflect the community.

I want to take time tho thank everyone involved in this project.
Most importantly the community, I don't think I have ever felt such gratitude. I want to thank Metro Arts (Metro Nashville Arts Commission) for organizing this and Jeff Syracuse....well just because Jeff is like 5 kinds of awesome. To everyone I met on the greenway , I want to thank you for showing support.
I'm simply gushing right now because this was such a great opportunity, I learned soooo much and met so many lovely people.
I had a lot of people ask about more artwork on the greenway
all I can say is contact Jeff, he's your voice, I'd love to do more artwork for the community and spread beauty.
And last but not least, thanks Troy for just being you. One dat I'll be as cool as Troy is.
Thank You guys soooooo much!
Much love
J. Dante Bard

We had a lot of feedback on the mural including music and musicians, but what musicians in particular should be portrayed, or should there be any musicians portrayed? Should the representation of music be generic using only instruments? I'm curious to your thoughts.

The skate park event will be rescheduled for the 14th of may.
We will not be needing anymore input from the community for the artwork, you guys have given more than enough and we want to thank you for your support.
