Idea Stacking

"A caring investor and interested citizens! What a wonderful story!"

from "St. Pete Beach residents speak out on vintage theater’s future" - Georgia Earp

"It would be really great if the St Petersburg Trolleys could do a tour of the Shine Murals. That would raise money and be safer for people trying to drive in unknown locations looking for the murals. I am in a meetup group that would be very interested in doing this."

from "SHINE Mural Festival is Oct. 15-24; artists announced" - Marilyn L Voreis
