New Mural Brightens Cornelia

Cornelia, GA - Downtown Cornelia has added a vibrant new landmark to its streetscape: a wall-size mural on the side of Cornelia Pharmacy, transforming a familiar facade into a public canvas and giving the community a fresh reason to pause, snap a photo, and reflect.

The idea behind the mural stems from the city’s renewed embrace of public art and its effort to strengthen downtown’s identity. This is the second mural in Cornelia. The first one was “Cornelia Loves Tim Loves Tink Mural” project.

In the photo below, you can see the new mural taking shape. While it's not yet known what the entire mural will feature, the Chenocetah tower and an eagle are featured.

According to the city’s website, the new artwork is part of the broader “Vibrant Communities, Public Art” initiative.
The wall offered by Cornelia Pharmacy became available when the owner agreed to host the mural, supporting the downtown beautification effort.
