Wall of pride
Moses Lake unveils ball field mural
MOSES LAKE — The ball field at the Paul Lauzier Athletic Complex on Central Drive sported some new, vibrant colors Tuesday, when a mural celebrating Moses Lake was unveiled. “This is yet another example of (Moses Lake City) Council priority No. 3, which is city pride,” Mayor Dustin Swartz said. “This shows an immense amount of city pride, and also pride from our young people, which I love.” The image covers the back of the dugout facing Central Drive, and shows a young baseball player, a heron with wings spread wide, a Japanese torii gate and the city’s iconic fountain, all with a Moses Lake sunset for a backdrop. The mural was a collaboration between artist Phil Seth and 10 local youth between the ages of 12 and 17, Seth said. The creation took about a week, Seth said Tuesday.
