The Knoxville Community Fund has been in place for a number of years now — a fund managed through the Galesburg Community Foundation. In its existence, it’s provided funds for a number of beautification projects throughout that city. The latest of those is now officially done: the first of two large murals. The first mural is on an outside wall on the side of Big Catz BBQ.
On Galesburg In Focus, Will Stevenson talked about it with Knoxville Community Fund President and Vice President: Brett Wright (an employee of WGIL), and Mandy Balser (a former WGIL employee). Also joining us was Dusty Scott, the artist responsible for the mural.
