Veterans Memorial Hall, a program of the St. Louis County Historical Society, will unveil Minnesota artist Charles Kapsner's Air Force tribute painting on August 22nd at the Duluth Depot. The painting will be on display through August 26th just outside Veterans Memorial Hall and will be available for viewing between 9am and 6pm. Kapsner will be available at times to answer questions and speak to the public. This is the final in a series of five paintings honoring the women and men of each military branch.
