Art of the Fox Mural Unveiling
Saturday, October 5th
11:00am — 1:00pm
100 N. Island Ave
Batavia, IL 60510
Art of the Fox originally began to connect people and communities to the beauty, diversity, and importance of the Fox River through art. The Conservation Foundation is partnering with the Batavia Public Art Initiative, a committee of Water Street Studios, to bring a series of nature-inspired murals to Batavia’s City Hall, a historic windmill factory that stretches along the Fox River and harkens back to the time when the Fox was a working river, generating power for the factories that called its banks home. Now, as a government building, the grounds are a community gathering space, a public river walk, and a wildflower sanctuary. 10 local artists will reveal their nature-inspired murals, and we will have coffee, snacks and music.
