Jamie Cummings of Steamboat Alley Project says:
The mural is coming along and looking awesome!
Our next painting party will be Sunday, September 4 at 10 am in the Alley. Ladders and brushes would be appreciated. We're going to be working higher on the wall this time, so older kids are welcome, but littler kids won't have anything to do.
Hope to see you there!
