EXHIBITION PHOTO GALLERY: Asylum Avenue Renaming Ceremony (March 24, 2007)

A group of Hartford employees and neighborhood residents gathered at the corner of Asylum Avenue and Cogswell Street to hear Mayor Eddie Perez speak on the importance of Coexistence and officially rename Asylum Avenue as “Coexistence Avenue.” Raphie Etgar, creator and curator of the exhibition, was on hand to deliver remarks, as well as Joshua King, Vice President of Media and Community Relations at The Hartford. The new street signs were mounted in several locations along the exhibition route.
