[Mural by Ted] Stillwell
——————————
In 1997 the Hamilton Economic Development Board made a commitment to develop a mural in the downtown park. Under the auspices of a summer youth program of the Green Hills Community Action Agency, Michelle Rossi, a Penney High School student, was hired to develop sketches of local historic scenes. Under the direction of Marshall Tezon, president of the Economic Development Board, these scenes were organized into a large mural, then transferred onto 25 4'x8' panels by Tezon, Michael Chadwick and Rossi. Independence mural artist Ted Stillwell was commissioned by the Economic Development Board to paint the panels in his studio. The completed mural became the focal point for development of the new J.C. Penney Park.
