Arts in April 2026 Murals
Community Paint Day Saturday, April 25, 2026 - 10 am - 4 pm
Craven Arts Council & Gallery invites the community to join us in painting our newest murals on April 25th, from 10am to 5pm. These two new murals will be on the Broad Street side of the Chelsea Restaurant and the back porch of the Flying Fox, both located within easy distance of each other on Broad Street.
Painting will take place from 10am to 4pm. Members of the community are invited to participate in the painting of the mural, which will be outlined ahead of time, creating a large-scale paint by numbers. Participation is free, but all participants will need to complete a wavier on site. Craven Arts Council & Gallery will provide paint, brushes, and other supplies for the project. With the success of previous Art in Public Places programs, Craven Arts Council has organized to paint two murals for the this event: one on the Broad Street side of the Chelsea, and one on the back porch of the Flying Fox, giving participants and sponsors two opportunities to be a part of the creative process.
