Maze of the Week #16 - Fox Theatre Sign Maze Atlanta, Georgia

We move to Atlanta, Georgia for this weeks maze of the Fox Theatre Sign. It is a free drawn maze construction in the empty space of the sign around the letters.

Some information about the Fox Theatre

A 4,665 seat theater that is absolutely beautiful. The Fox Theatre opened on Christmas Day in 1929 and has been entertaining guests ever since. It hosts all types of events, plays, concerts, comedy, and shows. You can read more about the history on their website. The inside of this theatre looks amazing and the video below also shows some nice aerial footage of the sign.

The mazes:

We have 2 versions of this maze. The first is a full color maze.

I hope you enjoy the maze. You can find downloads of the maze at the mazes permanent home.

Maze of the Week #15 - The Orange Shop Sign Maze

Maze #15 of the year features another sign, this one from the state of Florida and the city of Citra, Florida with The Orange Shop. This maze uses the white space of the sign and a free drawn construction. I considered adding maze elements to additional parts of the sign, but in the end preferred this iteration.

Maze of the Week #14 - Rockford Tower Maze

We stay in the state of Delaware for this weeks maze with the Rockford Tower. The tower is located in Wilmington, Delaware and is located in the middle of the Rockford Park. The maze is a draw and cut construction using the stones as walls that pathways move through, I made 2 variations of the maze….with only one change - can you tell what that change was ?

Some information about Rockford Tower

The Tower includes a historical marker with the following inscription:

“In 1895, Theodore Leisen, engineer for the Wilmington Board of Park Commissioners, recommended that “a large pavilion and observatory” be built in Rockford Park on what was called Mt. Salem Hill, the highest point in the city at 330 feet above sea level. His proposal coincided with the Board of Water Commissioners’ conclusion that Wilmington was in need of a new water tower in that neighborhood. The two boards merged their projects in Rockford Tower. Built between 1899 and 1902, the half-million-gallon water storage tank and observatory is constructed of natural field stone and is an example of the Italian Renaissance Revival style. Rockford Tower is 57 feet in diameter at the base, 75 feet high to the floor of the observatory, and reaches a total height of 115 feet.”

You can read about the history here, and see some great old pictures including one showing it’s construction. Or if you are a sucker for drone videos like I am, check this one out:

The mazes:

Black and white. This is a new and improved version of the maze. The outline of the tower changed…from straight lines to lines that are shaped more like the individual stones. It was a slight change but make the tower look more natural !

Maze of the Week #13 - Clayton Theatre Maze

My favorite maze of the year (so far) is this week’s maze of the Clayton Theatre in Dagsboro, Delaware. I love movies and enjoy going to old movie theaters. The maze construction I used for this maze is a draw and cut. The bricks used for the façade make a natural "maze wall for the maze pathways to work themselves through.

Some information about the Clayton Theatre

Built in 1948, this is the last first run single screen theater in Delaware. After watching the video below and seeing the marquee lit up at night, I have been tempted to do a version of the maze “at night” showing off the wonderful colors. I put that on my to-do list. I also am suddenly hungry for some popcorn ! You can find what movie is playing here.

The maze:

Mostly a black and white maze, with a small pop of color in red for the PG-13. But, this is NOT a black and white maze as this this the actual coloring of the theatre !
