CIG Events
College Park City University Partnership received $25,000 in CIG funds toward a lighted mural installation in downtown College Park. “The Last Goldfish,” created by Baltimore-based artist Andy Dahl and funded by grants from the city of College Park and Prince George’s County, was installed in December. The design is a reference to 19th-century German immigrant Henry Bishop, who leased many ponds in the nearby Lakeland community and used them as breeding grounds for millions of goldfish.
On Monday, December 1, 2025, the Town of North Brentwood, together with leaders from the Prince George’s County Redevelopment Authority, the Anacostia Trails Heritage Area, 47A District Delegation, Prince George’s County Council District 2, Gateway Arts District, artists and community members celebrated a new pocket park honoring the rich tradition of Black enterprise prominently located along the Rhode Island Avenue Corridor in the Town of North Brentwood, Maryland.
