REPOST: Thank you @wdiyfm @silagh - This evening

REPOST: Thank you @wdiyfm @silagh - This evening on Lehigh Valley Arts Salon, Silagh White hosts a program highlighting the mural arts here in the region. First, she welcomes Missy Hartney, a successful advocate for the arts in the SouthSide Arts District, to discuss the importance of public "street art" including a recent crosswalk mural. Then Silagh welcomes local mural artist Sarah Karess, who has recently completed the hummingbird nature mural on the parking deck of the newly-renovated LANTA bus terminal in Allentown on 6th and Turner streets.
