The Kiss, one of the artworks recreated in 2004 for the Outdoor Art Museum, has been repainted and reinstalled!! It is back on display at East Main Street in Eastland between Images and formerly Arther Business Products. Many thanks to Ellen Kochoa for repainting the artwork!! Ellen says that “restoring Gustav Klimt’s The Kiss reproduction is a privilege and a pleasure.” She “admire[s] his Art Nouveau style and patterns” and “thoroughly enjoyed every brushstroke required to restore it.” And she did a fabulous job!! Swing by to see for yourself. This project is funded by Dominos-Eastland whose kind donation is going towards material costs for renovating the Eastland Outdoor Museum.

Thank you to these amazing Eastland High School football team gentlemen for helping the Lyric and Bankhead Community Theatre yesterday!! They moved incredibly heavy vintage appliances, stairs, platforms, and more, helping us as we transition the space from Crimes of the Heart to the upcoming Young Thespians Camp. Extra big shoutout to Coach Landers and Cara Landers for helping coordinate this.

If it feels like something has been missing between Images and Arther Business Products on Main Street in Eastland….it’s because there is!!! Last month volunteers deinstalled Outdoor Art Museum’s Gustav Klimt painting. Local artist Ellen Kochoa has been hard at work repainting and renovating The Kiss. Keep your eyes peeled, because it will be reinstalled very soon! Here’s the artwork before de-install, the lonely wall after deinstall, and a sneak peak of the painting’s glow up.
