Mineral Daily News-Tribune
MOOREFIELD – Eastern West Virginia Community and Technical College’s eight-foot chicken statue was recently painted by local artist Kelson Thorne.
The statue, named “Henrietta” by Eastern president Dr. Charles Terrell, was one of Kelson’s many recent mural projects completed over the summer and fall. The statue overlooks Corridor H on the north end of Eastern’s campus, welcoming travelers to the Poultry Capital of West Virginia.
Thorne is a graduate of West Virginia University, where he received a bachelor’s degree in fine arts in painting in December 2019. He now works as a recovery specialist at the Potomac Highlands Guild.
