We will be showcasing a series of smaller murals throughout Alma, CO, depicting their mining heritage.
This public art project will showcase seven artists from the Park County area. Each artist will be painting
a piece that is inspired by mining, natural resources, and the natural beauty that surrounds Alma.
The PCCA Artists involved are: Alyssa Serpentini, Jessica Kurnas, Brennen Scott-Williams, Scott
Bullock, Kia Neil, Marisa Green Novy and coordinator Faith K. Lefever, Vice President, PCCA.

The murals will be installed throughout the Town of Alma.
This project is funded by the South Park National Heritage Area and supported by the various merchants
in Alma, Colorado.

The artists will be working on the murals inside the Clesson Cabin, 217 S. Main St., Alma, and Alma’s
Town Hall, 59 Buckskin St. throughout the summer. Visitors are welcome to stop by and see the works in
progress. Times will vary, so look for the sign “Artist at Work” to meet the artists. The project is
anticipated to be completed by September 1st.

This is the second summer PCCA member artists will be creating a mural. Last summer they completed
the vibrant mural on the side of the Jefferson Market in Jefferson depicting the heritage of the railroad in
South Park.
