Ruston-Point Defiance Art Walk

Two bright new gorgeous murals will grace local walls by the end of today. The new art on the signature side of the Antique Sandwich Company is being installed today. Local artist Mary Mann created this first mural below. She had help from her students at the local SAMI high school, where Mann teaches (News Tribune article with more details here). Another local artist, Rachel Dotson completed the colorful mural on Don's Ruston Market just down the street recently.

A dedication ceremony for both murals is planned for Saturday, September 17th (time to be determined, probably mid-day). Ruston-Point Defiance Business District president Beth Torbet said they wants to dedicate this public art back to the community that supports their businesses. More details to follow on the ceremony, but in the meantime take a stroll along our own art walk!
