You're doing incredible work at Von King. It's a shame that a handful of short-sighted people don't put forth any effort to distinguish community supporters from manipulators. You are setting a precedent in the design world that few creatives are willing to encounter.

As time goes on... bonds will build and your hard work will speak volumes.

Building Bonds Creatively : I’m not entirely sure if the neighborhood will ever accept me as a local, even if I were to live in the area for another 10 or 20 years. But my hope is that my activities and work will be received the same way it was this past weekend, embraced as a beneficial effort.
