The folk artist Suzanne Mancuso, a native of Putnam County, has launched a quest to paint a portrait of every storefront on Main Street in Cold Spring. (Email photos to [email protected].)
In a previous project that took five years, Mancuso painted more than 1,175 churches, temples and shrines from 195 countries. In 2010 in Yorktown Heights she painted a 1,000-square-foot Virgin Mary.

Articles attributed to "staff" are written by the editor or a senior editor. This is typically because they are brief items based on a single source, such as a press release, or there are multiple contributors, such as a collection of photos.
What a cool idea! This is just wonderful. Can’t wait to see what my shop looks like.
