Our Very Own Mural!

James T. Lynch Contracting and the Town of Reading asked us to paint a mural at the annual Street Fair!

The mural features, per request of the Economic Development Committee, prominent or historic buildings in Reading. For now, people will have to guess the buildings as, due to the strict sign laws, the clearly artistic mural cannot have words, less it be considered a sign. So, though the educational component is lost, people can, at least, admire our community's favorite haunts.

The mural was created by Dennis Hart, professional artist and visual arts instructor at Creative Arts.

We invited children to paint the mural at the Street Fair!

See if you can recognize the featured buildings!

We were surprised that so many children engaged in and enjoyed painting the mural! We still have detail and a little clean up painting to finish...but here's the end product:

The two panels will hang on Woburn Street (near Venetian Moon) until James T. Lynch Contractors finishes construction of their proposed office building.

Many thanks to James T. Lynch Contractors of N. Reading for making this possible! Thank you Economic Development Committee for helping us navigate the difficult sign laws and supporting us at the Street Fair! Thank you for supporting the Arts!
