Queen Anne residents are needed to help paint the new mural on the Dexter Way underpass (below Aurora on the east side of Queen Anne). The community paint event is set for Saturday 8/21 and Sunday 8/22 from 11am to 5pm. The new mural will replace the 15-year-old painting that has long been covered with graffiti.

Directions:  Heading south on Aurora after the bridge, take the second exit on the right (Dexter Way N).  This exit is adjacent to the Hillside Motel. Call 206-285-4883 for information.

Walking around the hill over the last few days, I’ve come across some cute anonymous street art.

This little ladybug is right outside Ten Mercer, on Mercer Street.

This rocket ship is on an electrical box on Queen Anne Ave N. and Aloha.

Has anyone else come across any cute, random, anonymous art in Queen Anne recently?
