The city of Oshkosh is receiving a $30,845 grant from Wisconsin Economic Development Department (WEDC) to renovate underused alley space in the downtown Oshkosh area into a functional public gathering space. “I think there is a lot that goes into improving the labor force and enhancing the quality of life in Oshkosh,” Oshkosh Business Improvement.
Oshkosh is on track to join over 60 other cities as part of the “Greetings Tour” project, which creates postcard-inspired murals to encompass a city’s local culture. “We love working with communities to create something that everyone can take pride in,” Greetings Tour muralist Victor Ving said. Ving and photographer Lisa Beggs began the mural.
