Wrong venue and wrong audience for public service information mural!
The great people who work for the Century Center were nice enough to arrange for me to set up my mural during a 'Business Expo' event (arrangements made back in March of 2008) Unfortunately, the Chamber of Commerce (event sponsor) was mad I did not pay the event entrance fee - they kept giving me dirty looks and actually set up rope barricades to prevent people from walking over my way. The members of that organization did not even pause to look what my mural was about - they were so mad I was trying to horn in on their action (see the first part of my video for the isolation area). The business audience was only looking for free giveaways, anyway. Grown men in suits rushing to get mardi-gras necklaces and hoola-hoops, free anything and free DRINKS. This audience, in this greed mode will not pause to look at a public service message - lesson learned. One man hopped over the barricade to ask me what I was giving away. I should have said "Good visual advice". Lesson learned.
No surveys - no one qualified.
