Paula Payne Art Night

Nationally recognized local artist Paula Payne rounded out the first year of our artist night presentations. Curiosity about her role in the upcoming Mr. Rogers dramatized film led the discussion towards her past and present work on the art production of the show. We got to hear about her early work designing and working on the intricate model town featured in the opening credits, and her invitation by past co-workers to rejoin the team in recreating the town for it's latest incarnation. Working in very straightforward hands-on craftwork they built a new miniature city from the ground up, and we can't wait to see it on the big screen! If you would like to be featured as the next artist in our series, or know someone who would, let us know! Stay tuned for 2019's new artists!
