Artist: Allen Hilgendorf
Many of Hilgendorf’s Clinton murals depict life from days gone by. This mural portrays a home-coming reunion held in 1925. It is one of the largest murals in town, consisting of a collage of events rendered in a kaleidoscope of vibrant colours.
Restoration Artist: Bevin Finlay
The mural was digitally re-illustrated by Finlay in 2022, using photos of the original mural- returning the weathered image to its original brightness!
The animation that is now active, shows the original photos taken in 1925, that was used in 1998 by Allen to create the mural you now see. Thanks to Janes Groves for the 1925 pcitures, that were taken by her mother, Mrs. Mervyn Batkin
