Put Your Mark Downtown - Graham's Mill & Bridge Mural Fundraiser

Chillicothe, MO — June 11, 2025 — Grab a brush and Put Your Mark Downtown! Main Street Chillicothe is inviting the community to a hands-on mural fundraiser this Saturday, June 14, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Pocket Park (500 Washington Street).

For just $5, you can leave your literal mark on downtown Chillicothe by painting on the wall that will soon become the next piece in our famous mural collection. Before the official painting begins, participants will get 5 minutes to help fill in the first strokes of the Graham’s Mill & Bridge mural, designed by beloved local artist Scott Rule.

Whether you’re a seasoned artist or just want to be part of something big (and colorful), this is your chance to be part of Chillicothe’s mural legacy—and help us reach our $1,000 fundraising goal in just 2 hours!
