The NEW City of Clarksdale’s Arts & Culture District signs, created by Richard Bolen, will feature numerous people from Clarksdale or those who came out of Clarksdale who made signficant contributions in our county. These honorary markers are being hung on poles throughout Clarksdale’s historic downtown arts and culture district.
The four signs shown here are three musicians who were born in Clarksdale, and one who was born in nearby Friars Point: (west coast rap artist, Nate Dogg, nationally known hip hop artist, Rick Ross, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Ike Turner, and country music legend, Conway Twitty).
