The city of Artesia is celebrating the Peter Hurd mural, which has turned into an historical relic of the city’s past, present and future. Ten years ago, the mural made it’s way to Artesia after a private fundraising campaign. It stands proudly at the Artesia Public Library today. A complete story of the mural has been created by author David Pike in New Mexico Magazine. Just do an internet search for Putting the Art in Artesia.
