Project snapshot
Artsy Ink Tattoo Studio will implement placemaking interventions in Tompkinsville by expanding a community garden with native and seasonal plantings, installing durable seating and site-specific decorative art, creating a free community library/book-exchange with a reading nook, and commissioning vibrant murals. These interventions aim to activate underused public space, enhance social cohesion, support youth literacy and cultural expression, and apply CPTED principles to improve perceived safety and neighborhood stewardship, catalyzing sustained community investment and pride.
