INSPIRE (Oct. 2023)
A striking mural titled “Inspire” was unveiled on the east-facing wall of Midtown Café Daytona, located at the corner of Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard and Walnut Street. Created by Ormond Beach artist Perego, the mural pays tribute to four Midtown icons: Charles W. Cherry Sr., founder of the Daytona Times; James Huger Sr., the first Black city commissioner and Volusia County council member; Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune, founder of Bethune-Cookman University; and Yvonne Scarlett-Golden, Daytona Beach’s first Black mayor.
The mural was sponsored by the city and celebrates the community’s rich cultural heritage.
Funds Allocated: $10,000 (ARPA Funds)
