It's complete and looks GREAT! ❤️

We absolutely love this new artwork on Merchant Street! ❤️
You can see it from blocks away as you’re driving through town, and it’s such a great addition to Ambridge.

We want to make sure the artist gets some love, too. if you know who created this mural, tag them in the comments so we can give them proper credit!

And while you’re there, learn a little more about IronRite Barbershop. We featured them in an Ambridge Connection story and we’ll drop that story in the comments.
