Amtrak gets creative, funding ‘psychylustro’ arts project

“Amtrak has decided it’s going to become a veritable Louvre.  Amtrak’s gameplan involves deftly blending individual donations and foundation grants with money from the National Endowment for the Arts and in-kind contributions of its own (tax-funded, for-profit) services. Funding comes from a variety of sources, several of them public. Not included in the $300,000 price tag are the salaries of the Amtrak engineers who ‘are overseeing the action at every site during the artwork’s installation.’  Further: ‘For the next six months, the Mural Arts Program and the City of Philadelphia’s Graffiti Abatement Team have pledged to maintain ‘psychylustro’ and protect it from defacement.'”
