It's the latest in a series of art in public space art projects made possible by KCCI (Knight Creative Communities Institute).

The Brushes For Books project is part of an ongoing community beautification effort by the Knight Creative Communities Institute (KCCI)

The KCCI project intends to give the area's kids safe and fun places to ride and polish their free-wheeling skills.

What once attracted graffiti now attracts admiring eyes as well as providing a showcase for local artists.

Before long, the Title One school on Tallahassee's South Side will be the "go-to" place for kids to hone their bicycle skills in an enjoyable, safe setting.

Project organizers say children in the neighborhoods around the Tallahassee school will have safer riding experiences as a result of the park and its resources.

The latest project of the Knight Creative Communities Institute seeks to give several of the Capital City's graffiti-scarred traffic control boxes an aesthetic makeover.
