New mosaic adding color and inspiration to historic Duluth

Residents will now have another piece of artwork to admire in downtown Duluth. Artist Jennifer Freeman, with the help of Duluth Fall Festival volunteers, recently completed a mosaic artwork in Parsons Alley next to Dreamland BBQ. The piece will be dedicated at 6 p.m. Dec. 14.

The Duluth Fall Festival routinely uses all the proceeds from the city’s annual festival for projects designed to go back to the city. The organization’s $25,000 donation made it possible for the design, creation and installation of the mosaic, which spans 25 feet along the wall and rises between 5 and 7 feet tall. Public funds were not used for the project.
