Public art is important to a community. We like our public art
to be serendipitously iscovered as residents and visitors wander
around West Reading. Public art adds vitality and liveliness to
our community, and best of all, public art is freely accessible.
-DEAN ROHRBACH
About ten years ago, Dean Rohrbach approached me to help create a " Mural Corridor "
on Kline Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenues. This cluster of six artworks in a
one-block space brought together neighborhood residents with local artists.
Cherry Street became a second location and grew into an extensive collection
of over 30 artworks in three blocks. This notable public art collection is now named
Dean's Way in memory of the man who had the vision and tenacity to create it.
I hope you enjoy seeing our public art collection and learn more about it
through this tour. visitwestreading.com/public-art for more information.
