Standing high about the skyline of downtown, “Mural at the Mill,” the latest piece in the Salina Kanvas Project is now complete. The mural, which was placed on the 100-foot tall H.D. Lee Flour Mill on North Santa Fe Avenue, was completed by Guido Van Helten of Australia, who has done similar, large-scale projects around the world. The Kanvas Project was the vision of Travis Young, CEO of Vortex Global. He said the hope is that the work done will be something to bring more murals and street art to the downtown area and to Salina as a whole. “We want Salina to be a destination versus a spot to fill up with gas along the interstate”, Young said on the project’s website. “This will help bolster business opportunities and support the amazing institutions we already have here in Salina.”
