Couple's Choice

Jenyl Linkey and her husband, Yaya Cabo, from Toledo, choose one of artist Tommy Earsing's kinetic metal sculptures during Sunday's 31st annual Art on the Mall at Centennial Mall on Main Campus.

UToledo Interim President Matt Schroeder and his family were among the thousands of attendees at the annual event, sponsored by The University of Toledo Alumni Association.

"It was one of the hottest days of the month, which seems to always land on Art of the Mall," joked Ansley Abrams-Frederick, director of Alumni Programming. "And yet this was our most successful show since 2019. We had new musical entertainment and more than 110 artists this year, which brought in new attendees and energy that was so rewarding to experience alongside the sponsors, artists, community members and volunteers that made this event possible."
