Be sure to go by and take a look at the new mural that's up. A big THANK YOU goes out to Andrea Croskery, who designed it, and Ray Elmore who turned it into art. Also, we couldn't have done it without all of our volunteers.
Let us know what you think of the new mural design!
| Many of you are familiar with the current mural that adorns the front of the theater at 5th and Evans. On February 26th, we will begin the process of updating the mural. Volunteers are welcome to come join our Painting-Party. The paint starts flying at 1pm and goes until everything is coated in primer. Soon after, we will be unveiling the new mural design. So stay tuned! |
