Last week when I visited my sister we took some time to walk around Newark, Ohio. She and her husband moved there right before Covid hit and they have begun to appreciate the town and all it has to offer. Moving during Covid lockdown was not easy at all but they are finally feeling that this is their home now. It is a lovely town with a lot to offer and one of the things I always love to see is when a town highlights its past with colorful murals. Newark has done a great job with this.

The area features a Canal Market District with a nod to the Ohio Canal and many of the murals feature the canal.

What a great town with such great art. Thanks, Newark, for providing such beauty for visitors and residents alike.
