Description

A digital photograph that depicts chalk messages on the Mill Street sidewalk written during the COVID-19 pandemic. In the foreground, the word "Smile" is written in orange chalk on the sidewalk, and a smiling mouth is drawn beneath it in a light pink or white chalk. In the background, towards the right side of the image, the message "Stay Healthy" is written in a light-coloured chalk on the sidewalk, with another cartoon smile drawn to the left of it in a white or light-coloured chalk. To the left of the image, the road is visible, and there are two grey cars parked near the sidewalk: one in the background, and one in the extreme far background. There are also some grey brick buildings present in the top-left corner of the image. On the right side of the image, many storefronts are visible. In the far background, a hanging blue sign for a "Supreme Restaurant" is visible. The photograph was taken at night, so the sky that is visible is black, but there are numerous light sources such as the storefronts and streetlights. This image was taken during the COVID-19 pandemic.
