Our family is very excited to go and see the inaugural lighting of this beautiful mural representing our Portuguese heritage.
One of the things I love about my hometown is the murals and how Fall River has started to really show an appreciation for the arts. Many of you know that Nelson and I also own an artist coworking space and art gallery called SoCo Art Labs, so we are very happy to see the buy in from residents for all that art has to offer and how it enriches our lives.
We hope that you can join us this evening and enjoy Fall River Illuminated.
A huge thank you to Fall River Arts and Culture Coalition - FRACC and all the partners that are making this possible.
