In order to honor many of the iconic historic buildings in Philipsburg, the Arts Fund commissioned local artist Ben Larson to create a series of pen and ink sketches. The finished pieces are printed as postcards and are packaged in a set of 10 sketches for $10 as a fund raiser for Philipsburg Arts Fund projects.
