The men were installing temporary murals by nine local artists that are part of the Social Connecting Campaign by Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and the Momentary. The campaign seeks to support those most vulnerable to the effects of isolation during the covid-19 pandemic. People have been taking home postcards with line art versions of the paintings to color and mail to hospital patients and senior living facilities. The murals themselves are on a tour of the same facilities throughout Northwest Arkansas, set up each day outside for residents and guests to enjoy. (NWA Democrat-Gazette/Ben Goff)
Friday's photo gallery includes photos of Crystal Bridges' social connecting campaign, a craftsman working on a huge Razorback wood sculpture and a food bank mobile food pantry in Prairie Grove.
