Art & Sole: Murals in the Market | Roula David | TEDxDetroit


 

Murals In The Market is an annual Detroit art festival bringing local and international artists together to create murals in the historic Eastern Market. As Chief Operating Officer, Roula manages 1xRUN’s staff and the Inner State Gallery. She comes from experience as an entrepreneur, founding Cincinnati, Ohio’s short-lived but beloved “space-age diner,” Vinyl. 

After joining 1xRUN in 2014, Roula has headed up the company’s Special Projects initiative, which pairs 1xRUN’s artists with different projects including Murals in the Market. 

Over the past four years, 1xRUN and Eastern Market Corporation have produced more than 125 murals in the Eastern Market District. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
