HELENA, Mont. – The City of Helena will host a ribbon cutting ceremony on Wednesday, Sept. 6, to celebrate the completion of the new Centennial Trail mural. The event will start at 9 a.m. at the tunnel, which runs beneath N. Last Chance Gulch. The public is invited to attend.
The mural was painted by Helena artist Elise Perpignano, who was selected for the project in the spring. The mural covers both walls of the tunnel, creating a vibrant connection between Memorial and Centennial parks. The roughly 3,000 square foot mural is a celebration of Helena. It features Helena’s history, indigenous tribes, the railroad, native plants, and more.
The project originated as a proposal from the Helena Public Art Committee. It was approved by the City Commission in the spring.
