After the completion of the first CoSign, we began to craft the mission of what CoSign truly is: a model for utilizing the arts for economic development, that brings together local business owners with artists and professional sign fabricators to create unique signage in designated business districts and train the next generation of sign makers. In 2013, over the course of six months we focused on how to engage the community better and refine the program's process.

Upon it's completion, a total of 22 businesses participated, 70 artists submitted 265 sign designs and 9 new signs were created for the business district. The signs were unveiled during Black Friday, November 29, 2013 to the entire Northside community.
