Willye B White is commemorated for her athletic and social achievements, and we thought an art print doing the same would be a great way for us to give the park something permanent. Long after our current exhibition is taken down at the park, this print by Steve Walters, will serve as IPMM’s thank you to the park, it’s staff, and Willye White herself. Once we got to talking with our buddy Steve, we realized this image of her victorious Olympic feats needed to be part of the presentation. Steve’s ability to create great art prints and gigposters with found imagery is a skill we admire, and we were confident he’d do a fantastic job. He has.
