Waiting to hear your number called to renew vehicle registration, business or driver license will be a little less monotonous through Dec. 20 due to a public art display in the Duval County Tax Collector's Office on the ground floor of the Yates Building along Forsyth Street.

The exhibition of 21st-century pop art, "Tom and Derek Live at the Tax Collector's Office," is the first art exhibit in the building, said Tax Collector Michael Corrigan.

Seattle-based artists, illustrator Tom DesLongchamp and painter Derek Erdman, submitted a collection of drawings and paintings for the exhibit, including a portrait of Corrigan.

The inaugural exhibition is made possible at no cost to

the city by the cooperative effort of Corrigan and Cavendish Projects, a grassroots public art outreach program facilitated by Gunster Law Firm attorney Michael Cavendish.

The exhibit is open to the public 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday through Dec. 20.
