Bantam Mural

Bantam Mural

The 9-by-30-foot mural that will be displayed on the elevator tower of the Bantam Arts Factory is done and it will be unveiled June 29!

The unveiling event takes place from 1 to 3 p.m. on the top floor of the Arts Factory building. All are invited to attend.

The mural features a central image of a woman making pottery surrounded by references to other defining elements of Litchfield, including agriculture, the cinema and residents in the film business, the town’s bakeries, chefs and food establishments – and the signature Bantam rooster.

It was painted by artist and muralist @daniellemailer of Goshen, with some help from community members.

The @litchfieldartscouncil is proud to sponsor this ambitious public art project. It will be a memorable landmark piece for Litchfield residents and those who visit our town.

Anyone who wishes to learn more about the mural project should email Arts Council Chair Priscilla Jeffrey at lacadmin@litchfieldartscouncil.org
