"Greetings From" Murals ... Fun Art Across Central Oregon

The playful, retro "Greetings From" murals across Central Oregon bring back fond memories of the postcards that were a huge hit with tourists in the mid 20th century. These murals are part of the The Central Oregon Mural Trail and are created by Karen Eland and Katie Daisy for Visit Central Oregon. In an interview with Karen Eland, learn about the back story of these fascinating murals; how are they created to withstand the test of time, what's the inspiration for the murals, and how have they been funded.  So next time you cycle by one of these amazing murals, while you are snapping that selfie to send to your friends, you'll have the insider info on where they came from.   This podcast is supported in part by a grant from the Bend Cultural Tourism Fund. Dirty Freehub is a nonprofit organization that publishes hand-curated (and great!) gravel cycling route guides. Our mission is to connect gravel cyclists to where they ride through stories about culture, history, people, places, and lands with the hope that they will become involved as advocates, volunteers, or donors with organizations that protect and preserve recreation spaces.
