The FYI center opened recently in the Historic West End of downtown Greenville … Their website says the FYI is a partnership with Furman University and the YMCA “the center is free to all currently enrolled high school students … weekly events, presentations, and programming for the Greenville community”.

As a follow-up to my recent post showing The West End Association mural I thought I should share a photo of the building the mural depicts. You may also remember this previous photo showing the Nexus of Light sculpture shown in today’s photo.

The rain stopped, the clouds begin to clear, and the crowds came out to enjoy Artisphere in downtown Greenville. We enjoyed artist row, a meal from Smoke on the Water, and listen to blues played at the Bi-Lo stage. That was in the afternoon. We went out in the evening and listened to Susan Tedeschi play at the Peace Center Amphitheater. Personally I think Susan’s music is very reminiscent to Janis Joplin.

One of the benefits of photography is the frequent discovery of something interesting in a scene which has become common … I have walked past this building, in Greenville’s History West End, many times. Then, when trying to capture the evening light and texture of the building, I noticed there is a message on the wall inside the building. You can see only a few characters at a time though the second story window with a torn plastic cover. I have convinced myself the message says “Staff of Life” … I wonder; was this a church, a hippy commune, an artist studio, or something completely different and just part of an advertisement … See if you can make it out from the extra images I have shared.

PS: I think Abraham Lincoln may have the answer: Abe said “Could it possibly have been a bakery? Bread being the staff of life”. A Google search turns up numerious references to the phrase “staff of life” in reference to bread.
