  The Importance Of This Location
  
  This location is perfect for a mural remembering labor in Glassboro's past. Right across from it is a mural commemorating the the Glassboro Firehouse because Glassboro suffered from numerous fires in the past.
  
  And further down is a site remembering Glassboro’s servicemen who dedicated their lives fighting for this country. What also makes this location perfect is the casual nature of the the Glassboro Town Square. The hilly town square is a place where people can gather at will and where events are commonly held. By placing this mural here, people are likely to view it in passing and think about it in the middles of their day. The mural doesn’t have many words nor will it have precise drawings that give away what is trying to be said.
  
  Rather, my hope is that on a beautiful afternoon, people will casually come across it. At the very least they’ll think about why these particular people are features in this mural. And at most, they'll recognize the people depicted are from various working-class career fields, who faced various struggles of their own. Lastly, this spot is important because not too far from here is a statue of a man making glass. In away, this mural adds to romanticized nature of the statue by featuring glass-makers with a more intense look in their eyes.
