Overlooked Stories from the American Revolution

Drawing on its substantial American Revolution research, the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum partnered with Juniper Creative Arts to develop a public mural sharing untold stories from the historical period. The mural includes artwork developed by local students and community members and will be visible to the museum’s more than 10,000 annual visitors.

The mural includes artwork by local students and pieces created during a public artmaking day. Students also helped build the frame, using traditional boat-building techniques. The mural was unveiled alongside a public artist talk.

The mural has received a strong positive response from visitors to the museum, who appreciate its impactful visual storytelling.
