It’s always interesting to me when events happen in pairs. Earlier this month, two public art projects came to a successful conclusion on opposite sides of the Upper Valley.Newport’s Library Arts Center coordinated a remaking of the Newport Heritage.
When Newport put up a huge mural in 1997, everything about the project was new to its participants.Meant to commemorate both the town and its hosting of the New England Artist Trust Congress, the 48-by-12-foot mural depicts Newport as it existed when.
