Thanks to Huron County funding, the Bayfield Mural by artist Meaghan Kehoe is now completed! As a first of its kind mural painted in Bayfield, and part of a mural trail planned for 6 communities in Huron County, the Bayfield mural is a huge success.

The BCA presents the final sketch for the mural to be painted on the arena wall on Jane St. with funds provided by Huron County Economic Development.

The Bayfield Sails Project intends to honour the marine history of Bayfield and Lake Huron with the design of the hulls replicating specific boats such as the Helen McLeod and the sailboats manufactured by Bayfield Boat
