The smaller prints will be given to individuals or businesses that donate $200 and larger prints will be given for $300 donations. The donations will fund the painting o f a mural o f the same scene on the Agricultural Museum building in Heppner. The mural will be 17’ by 100’. Robert Walton, a well-known artist from Levinworth, WA, used pictures from the M orrow C ounty M useum to recreate a Main Street scene from 1903. From the original painting, 200 prints were made, all with their own print number, matte and frame. The original, framed painting will be given to the first individual or business to m ake a $6,000 donation. The Morrow County Arts and Crafts group raised the money to have the prints made. Four buildings in the painting are still standing today: the building where Klamath First bank is now was once the First N ational Bank; the M urray’s Drug building was The Rock, a tavern; Gardener's Men’s Wear was the post office and the IOOF building was just that in 1903. The Mural Society will display the prints at a booth by the museum during Celebrate Historic Heppner on Friday, July 26. /
