Here you will find the Commission’s extensive collection of photographs. Perhaps you are searching for pictures of previous year’s Chalk the Walk festival or wondering what the inside of the old Neff Furniture Store used to look like. Maybe you’re just here to browse. Whatever the reasons, just know that these photos capture the spirit of Mount Vernon.
