Chin, a HOPE partner and restaurateur behind Swift's Attic and Wu Chow, is curating the food and beverage offerings. Patrons will be able to order coffee, beer, wine, cocktails and food from local businesses. The space will showcase all types of art - creative technology, digital pieces and interactive installations, as well as culinary arts. The new park will still have walls where people can paint freely, but it will also include curated exhibits that change throughout the year. “We proposed to the developer there, since they have to demo those walls anyway, if they wanted to bring some of that demo here, we would recycle those walls in the ground and places where we could put that rubble,” Scull said. Some of the rubble from the original location is also being recycled for use at the new park. One of the original slabs is being saved from the old site to serve as a memorial to the project’s origin. “I think HOPE historically has always kind of made things based on a need, and that's how we feel about the park now: that we're continuing to build a place that the community can enjoy and come to,” Andi Scull, HOPE Outdoor Gallery’s founder, said. Chin runs the food and beverage programming at HOPE and Andi Scull is the park's founder.
