The final work will be painted onto three large canvases and hung in the rotunda at the Town’s new office space located at 500 La Gonda Way.  This artwork will be a long-term attraction to greet residents and visitors upon entry to the new Town Offices building, due to open in 2022.  The work should aim to represent the Town in a contemporary artistic style and celebrate the Town’s landscape, history and heritage.
