Hillsboro approves caboose art wrap by students; Traill County Arts Coalition to cover costs
Summary
Commissioners approved a caboose vinyl-wrap art project designed by Hillsboro art students and Amanda Johnson; the Traill County Arts Coalition will cover the cost and the railroad approved the design.
The commission approved a proposal to wrap a caboose in student artwork and granted a raffle permit for the Art Club on July 20.
According to the record, Hillsboro art students and Amanda Johnson collaborated on a design for a caboose wrap. The group bought rights for a design when an initial vinyl-wrap quote from Wahpeton was too high and located a local Hillsboro graduate to perform the work. The Traill County Arts Coalition agreed to cover the project's cost and the railroad approved the proposed design. Commissioner Evans moved to approve the caboose project and Commissioner Geray seconded; the motion carried unanimously. The commission also approved the Art Club raffle permit that will help support student activities.
The project timeline aims for completion before winter, per the presentation to the commission.
