Don't know if anyone else remembers the old "Paint By Numbers" kits, but for several years it seemed like my dad always had one sitting on an easel. Craig Downs, a St. Louis native now spending part of his year in a small beach town in Mexico, elevated the concept to a whole new level for this 2013 Grove Fest mural at Manchester and Kentucky in St. Louis. Creating a design that appealed to a diverse group of participants, Downs numbered each area of the mural to be painted then warmly welcomed participation from a dissimilar group of all ages and skill-levels.  @grovefeststl
