Home Sweet Home Restoration Project

Picture
West End Arts continues to restore and maintain the Home Sweet Home mural on the boardwalk as an annual event. We remove the plexiglass cover and thoroughly clean and repaint the parts that need new paint. We also try to make this a fundraising event to raise money so we can continue this project for now and into the future. 
Phase Two of the Home Sweet Home restoration project began on September23rd, 2020. In Phase One which started in 2018 we repainted some of the original artwork which had faded or peeled off. We also installed a plexiglass cover to keep it protected from the elements on the boardwalk. For Phase Two we are screwing down pieces of wood which became loose and more repainting since many of the squares of wood have again peeled off.  When the painting is done we will put down a coat of varnish to keep it preserved as long as possible. Phase Two is also a fundraiser by us selling the blanks to locals who wish to repaint them. This will help raise money for West End Arts so we can continue to do the needed repairs to keep this art project on the boardwalk for years to come.
