Purple Line NOW has been given permission to reprint this stunning piece of art entitled "Purple Line Construction" by the very talented local artist Chris Luckman! Her painting has been accepted into the Rockville Art League Winter Members Show and the exhibit will be at Glenview Mansion from December 8 - January 17. There is an opening reception on December 8, from 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm and all are welcome.

Thank you to Chris for capturing the hardworking Purple Line crews all along the project's corridor!

What' Happening

   WHAT'S HAPPENING AT PLN?

Purple Line NOW Needs Your Help!

When the autumn leaves start to fall, so does our budget over here at Purple Line NOW. We schedule our fundraising appeal each year at the time when we need it most -- and that time is now! We hope, if you haven't had a chance to consider a donation to Purple Line NOW, you might at this time. And, if you have been a previous donor, but do not see your name on our donor list, that you might consider renewing your donation for the upcoming year.

Our coffers are low and we hope that if you are able you will consider supporting our efforts as we head into the new year (and one step closer to opening day!)

A huge and heartfelt thank you to everyone who supports Purple Line NOW!

Below is our list of donors who have given in the past twelve months. We appreciate each and every donation -- and if you don't see your name on the list, we hope you will consider renewing (or giving for the first time!)

Your support will be used to continue this newsletter and to continue our education forums. We meet every month to share information and keep abreast of all things Purple Line which helps us bring the latest news to you.

Construction Updates

Here's a quick video from Maryland Purple Line Senior Project Director Ray Biggs II on fall progress.

Traffic on Adelphi Road at Campus Drive is now one lane northbound with no left turns onto Campus Drive. Expect delays until Jan 2025. The Purple Line team advises use of MD 201 or U.S. 1 for north-south and MD 193 or MD 410 for east-west. Click for detour map: https://ow.ly/FWQ250U3rg8 #PurpleLineprogress #PurpleLineMD
