Art constitutes a vital piece of our cultural heritage. Whether it’s hanging in a solemn museum or adorning a bustling neighborhood’s wall, it all bears witnessing. We are its caretakers. We need to safeguard it for the next generation, and the generations after that. So when I heard about the picturesque, lifelike Willie Nelson mural in Austin, Texas, possibly facing the wrecking ball, I was very concerned and upset. The public won’t always have the actual Willie, but we can have his likeness forever. And it’s up to each of us to make sure that it stays right where it is for as long as possible.
