Jess Lauren Lipton, on the lower level, and Louise Rosen glue a paper panel to the mural on the Uneeda Biscuit building on Lisbon Street in Lewiston on Thursday afternoon. The project, a collaboration between L/A Arts and the Lewiston High School 21st Century Summer Program, will be a mural depicting the students’ interpretations of Kennedy Park interspersed with photographic imagery. The process is intended to be temporary and while it may last for several years, it can be easily removed by the building’s owner by power-washing.
