Baytown mural restoration wins state funding grant
The Texas Preservation Trust Fund and Texas Historical Commission will cover half of the Baytown Post Office mural restoration cost. Baytown officials praise Rep. Wayne Smith for steering the grant. The 1937 Fresco seco mural by Barse Miller, depicting Texas transportation progress, is slated for mid spring work with an artist to be chosen by the THC.
