Abstract:

“Outdoor wall murals can create beauty and interest on any otherwise large, blank surface,” says Jeffrey York, director of public art and community design at the North Carolina Arts Council in Raleigh. “The subject matter of a mural can also tell something about the history of the identity of the community.” Kunkel discusses outdoor murals in Valdese, King's Mountain, West Jefferson, Siler City, Chapel Hill, Wilmington, and Thomasville.
