Murals Added To Museum Wall

A strikingly colorful addition to downtown Oakland are several murals placed on the backside of Garrett County’s Transportation Museum. The historical photos, collected by Bob Boal, president of the Garrett County Historical Society, and Don Callis, museum volunteer, are of scenes from virtually every community in Garrett County, with some form of transportation being the common thread.

Several hundred of the photos were then presented to designer/artist Barry Domenick of Domenick Signs, who then worked with members of his creative crew to complete the project. The project was financed in part with state funds from the Maryland Heritage Areas Authority, an instrumentality of the state of Maryland. However, the contents do not necessarily reflect the views or policies of the Maryland Heritage Areas Authority. More here.
