Art + Brattleboro, VT
One of Cynthia Parker Houghton’s most recognizable pieces is her famous Chicken-Rex mural is in the downtown Brattleboro’s Harmony lot.
Cynthia’s work is woven into the fabric of Brattleboro—from puppets in the Strolling of the Heifer’s parade to the Brattleboro Art Museum.
Cynthia’s graphic design skill grace the front of Brattleboro’s new tool lending library with her new Field to Fork piece.
Parades, Puppetry + Joy
A key element in Cynthia’s work is wonder and joy. This is best exemplified by her work in costumery, puppetry, and parade art.
And what better way to show joy than chickens?
