The Delaware Valley Arts Alliance (DVAA) unveiled “Fractured Futures,” a community-designed mural by artists Frida Foberg and Kayla Jolin on Saturday morning. They were selected for “Frack, Crack, Boom, Bang”: a call for artists to uplift voices of those touched by fracking and extraction from landscapes in partnership with Damascus Citizens for Sustainability (DCS) and the Ohio Valley Allies. The mural was the culmination of a series of community engagements, including a workshop held at DVAA in June at which local residents watched interviews featuring Ohio Valley residents impacted by the extraction industry and shared their own perspectives. Foberg and Jolin then distilled their voices into the final mural design. During its execution, community members and visitors to Narrowsburg were invited to join the lead artists in painting the mural. After the unveiling there was a community potluck celebration with artists Jordan Temchack and Foberg, DCS co-founder Jane Cyphers, and Jill Hunkler from the Ohio Valley Allies. Pictured are Foberg, left, and Hunkler.
