Oyster Catch Basin Mural for Earth Day

For Earth Day April 22, 2024 local artist Nina Iglesias painted an Oyster Catch Basin Mural to help highlight the importance of Oysters in cleaning water in Raritan Bay and to remind us to keep the streets and catch basins clean so that we can protect our water from pollution and reduce local flooding. The mural was commissioned by Perth Amboy Artworks. This makes 6 catch basin murals produced by Perth Amboy Artworks. Sponsor a Catch Basin Mural
