about the Cover

On the cover of this issue of the Lawyer magazine , we are pleased to feature two great murals celebrating the history of the region . The two murals , called “ Dream Pushers ” are featured on the south and west walls of The Dream Center located in Ybor City .
Just north of Ybor City sits a campus of city facilities that serves the V . M . Ybor and East Tampa communities and include a city park and football field , a newly-restored above grade pool originally built in 1937 , and The Dream Center , a city building leased to a nonprofit , faith-based organization . The Center offers after school programs and youth mentoring . The south and west walls of The Dream Center served as the canvas for the murals .
Commissioned in 2016 by artists Illsol ( Tony Krol , Michelle Sawyer ), the first mural depicts the history of the Ybor neighborhood and its settlers through imagery and the colors in the Spanish , Cuban and Italian flags . The artists have featured a 1930s era swimmer and the nearby JC Newman cigar factory clock . The colors used on the first mural wrap around to the back , and complement the second mural , that depicts the contemporary use of the space .
