The Redevelopment Authority of the City of Butler will allow murals to be painted by local artists on two of their downtown buildings.
A representative of the Butler Art Center recently approached an Authority board member to request permission to paint a musical or theater themed mural on the side of the Penn Theatre.
The Art Center would also like to paint a mural on the wall that faces Main Street of the former Peppers Flowers building on West Cunningham Street that is also owned by the Authority.
The Authority has requested that the artists email the final designs for the murals before they begin painting sometime in the next couple weeks.
