 Oby’s Coca-Cola Mural, Oby’s, Academy Rd. in Starkville painted in 1998. Launching a Public Arts Initiative is just one of the ways the Starkville Beautification Committee hopes to bring positive change to the community.
Dylan Kargas, committee member, said while the committee continues to keep focus on their mandate to consider recommendations associated with the visual appearance of the city, other projects are in the works to make Starkville a more beautiful place to live.
"Working collaboratively on a shared vision for the common good could define 'community' or at least a community’s leadership, and Starkville and its partners are on the right track," Karges said.
