The Iola Chamber is in the process of collaborating with other local businesses to bring four new murals to Iola. The murals will appear over the next 12-18 months.
The first mural will be on the east wall outside the Chamber building at 10 W. Jackson. The mural will depict the Fearless Fred Trolley and be about 7 feet by 12 feet. Work on the mural is scheduled to start in July by local designer and muralist, Max Grundy.
The second mural is set to appear on the south wall of Audacious Boutique, 19 S. Jefferson.
If you are excited about the idea of bringing additional artwork to Iola and want to contribute to the effort, you can help!
In September, the Chamber will sponsor a silent auction in which all proceeds will go to help pay for the paint and the artist’s time devoted to the mural project.
The auction will be open to all businesses as well as the public. Donations for the project can also be brought to the Chamber. If you have any questions, please stop by our office or contact us at [email protected] or 620.365.5252.
