Fall 2026 we partnered with the New York State Council on the Arts to bring two new murals to our service area, specifically Clinton and Franklin counties. It was an absolute pleasure working with artists Kendra Farstad and Mollie Ward on these additions to the North Country landscape.

Made possible by the NYSCA CHARM Initiative with support from the Office of the Governor.
