En Pointe
ARTIST: LINDSEY O’SHIELDS
Location: Mill Street Wall at Georgia Dance Conservatory
About the Mural: For 6o years little dancers with dreams of one day dancing on Pointe have taken ballet classes at Georgia Dance Conservatory (GDC) on the Square. Marietta artist Lindsey O'Shields has three daughters and friend's children who have taken classes with Ms. Irene, Ms. Kathy, Ms. Ellen, Ms. Ashleigh or the other dance teachers at GDC. O'Shields took this passion and the dedication of the young dancers at Georgia Metropolitan Dance Theatre, the non-profit dance company, housed within GDC, as inspiration for her mural, En Pointe.
