Report being done on preservation of airport murals – ministry

A report on recommendations to preserve murals by famed artist Aubrey Williams at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) Timehri is currently being prepared.

This is according to a statement from the Ministry of Public Infrastructure last evening in response to a news item in Monday’s edition of Stabroek News headlined `Narrow escape for Aubrey Williams murals at CJIA -unclear what plans made for them”.

The ministry statement said that in early February 2017, the Cheddi Jagan International Airport Corporation engaged the National Trust of Guyana for guidance and help to preserve the murals and paintings placed at the arrivals and departures sections of the Terminal Building.
