Parma Young Professionals showcase Ukrainian Village murals

Many beautiful murals can be seen throughout Ukrainian Village in Parma, Ohio.

“State Meats has served up Ukrainian sausages and other specialties for more than forty years.  So it seems the perfect place to display a mural welcoming all to Ukrainian Village.”

“Lviv International Food Store is home of delicious European food, drinks and dessert. It’s also home to some beautiful vinyl film wall art, provided by Brunswick company Inflatable Images.”

“The site of the old Parma Lock Service displays another view of Ukraine from Inflatable Images. These vinyl works were paid for with government-issued grants for city improvements.”

“Good Olde Daze has served Parma food and drinks for more than 25 years. Its scene of  the Ukranian city of Lviv is the final piece of the government-funded art on State Road. Former Mayor Dean DePiero said aesthetic improvements such as these capitalize on Parma’s strong ethnic heritage and make the city more attractive to people and businesses.”

Many others can also be seen when driving, walking, or riding your bike on State Rd.

Ever since I can remember, I’ve enjoyed growing up in Parma, OH, and appreciated the great sights and sounds the Greater Cleveland area has to offer. After serving five years in the U.S. Navy while stationed in Virginia Beach, VA, I decided to return to my hometown of Parma in 2009. Between my active involvement with various neighborhood revitalization initiatives in the local area and graduate studies at the Maxine Goodman Levin College of Urban Affairs, I’m constantly looking for ways to create a sustainable, positive impact in my community and I’m grateful to work with those passionate individuals who feel the same. Together, we will move Parma forward for the benefit of current and future generations.
