Mural removed from Central Elementary

| October 2, 2013

COSHOCTON – Reece Campbell, the company building the new elementary, worked closely with the Pomerene Center for the Arts and Coshocton City Schools to make sure the mural at Central could be removed Oct. 2.

The Pomerene Center was raising funds to bring a conservator down from the InterMuseum Conservation Association (IMCA) to structure a plan for preserving five murals in the city for the term. Through much planning and cooperation, everything fell into place just right and the conservator was here in time to oversee the move. The Pomerene Center is still excepting donations for the conservation project.

Students from Central, Lincoln and South Lawn will move into the new building Friday, Oct 4, and the plan is to have the mural there to greet them.

Also the Pomerene Center will be in the art hall at the fair from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Wednesday, Oct 2, and 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 3, making new murals for the town with anyone who would like to stop by.
