Teamsters Local 492

Updated Entryway To 492 Union Hall

Feb 24, 2017

New History Theme Entryway

Teamsters Local 492 recently updated the Union Hall entryway and had “Spence da Painter” free-hand paint a history theme mural on two of the walls with images from the IBT history books. As you can see from the picture, it looks amazing and Spence did a phenomenal job! You can view more pictures and see his process by Clicking Here. A special thanks to the handy work of two of the 492 Business Agents, Brother Trey White, Sister Melissa Malcom and her husband Brian Chavez for volunteering their free time to update the entryway by painting, hanging moulding, etc. and Retiree Brother Kelvin Holly for getting the floors in the main hall looking great again.
