Primus Mural Community Paint Day!

  • The Edward & Mary Lord Family Health Center 47 Town Street Norwich, CT, 06360 United States (map)

The Alex Breanne Corporation has collaborated with UCFS Healthcare, the Norwich NAACP, the Norwich Historical Society and Public Art for Racial Justice Education (PARJE) to unveil a new mural celebrating a formerly enslaved man named Primus.

Primus’s story spans generations. His son served in the Revolutionary War, and two of his second great-grandsons served in the Civil War—one of whom is memorialized on the 29th Connecticut Colored Regiment Monument in New Haven.

This will be a storytelling mural, tracing Primus’s path to America and celebrating his life, as well as the military service of his descendants.

Saturday, April 18 | 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
