Visiting Association Executives Paint Mural for Reeb Avenue Center

The outreach was part of the ASAE '19 Annual Meeting

Tanya Kennedy rolled up her business suit in her bag and swapped it out for an old gray T-shirt, just in case any of the yellow paint meant for the canvas on the table in front of her got on her clothes.

Kennedy, who works for Matrix Group International in Washington, D.C., is one of about 5,000 people attending the American Society of Association Executives 2019 Annual Meeting & Exposition at the Greater Columbus Convention Center. But between the keynote speakers and breakout discussions, attendees have the chance to give back to the city through the “Leave Your Mark” Community Mural Painting.

“This is so easy. Anyone can do this,” Kennedy said. “It’ll be fun to see what it ends up looking like and knowing I painted the windows.”
