Painting A Message Of Hope

 

 

 

An important message has been painted across the front windows of Chapter One Coffee & Tea as part of a suicide prevention program. Painter Anika Fullum of Associated Artistries puts the finishing touches on 988, a telephone/text number that offers help for people in crisis.

 

As part of a suicide awareness program intern artist Abbigail Owen paints mention of the select drinks offered this month at Chapter One Coffee & Tea.  You Matter-A-Latte drinks will contribute funds to the Clinton County NY Coalition To Prevent Suicide.  The list of specialty lattes is behind the front counter.

He said: “You liberals are dying out. You got your asses kicked.” Then he staggered off.

Yes, low IQ alcoholics really know what is going on.
