CIRCLEVILLE, OH — Two of Circleville’s most beloved public artworks — the Pumpkin Show Centennial Mural and the Pickaway County Bicentennial Mural — are slated for restoration, thanks to a community effort led by ArtsaRound and renowned muralist Eric Henn .
The murals, both located in downtown Circleville, have long served as vibrant visual tributes to the region’s history and culture. However, the passage of time has taken its toll, with visible signs of cracking, fading, and paint loss now marring their surfaces.
During Tuesday night’s Circleville City Council meeting, Steve Sawyer , Gallery Coordinator for ArtsaRound, presented a proposal to restore both murals. Sawyer announced that ArtsaRound is officially partnering with Henn to bring the historic artworks back to life
