The Memorial showing took place the afternoon of Saturday, April 20 at The Mill. It featured 70 memorial paintings done by Whtey Thompson, owner of WET Signs. Thompson used photographs as models as he created black and white paintings of people who died between January of 2023 and March of 2024. Also on display were color paintings Thompson has done over time.
