It is bittersweet that we get to share Ashlyn's last community project with you this week. As a valued member of the Miner team, we wish Ashlyn all the best on her upcoming journey. Though she is off to seek higher education and worldly experiences, we will enjoy the mark she's left across Iron County for generations to come. Good luck, Ashlyn!

Check out today's Iron County Miner featuring Iron County Youth Leadership Council member and artist Ashlyn Skahill.

Ashlyn created incredible new murals for the Iron County Health Department-WI, a project that is part of a youth internship supported by a Baldwin Foundation Wisconsin Idea Grant.

Great job, Ashlyn! 🍀🎨
