Tulagi Place Mural Project
St. Mary’s County Arts Council (SMCAC), with the support of the Maryland State Arts Council, the Southern Maryland Folklife Center, and in conjunction with the St. Mary’s County Department of Recreation and Parks, is proud to announce the winning artist, Tom Rogers!
The project will commemorate Tulagi Place - a historic landmark from the time the Naval Air Station Patuxent River was built - to support the “instant city” of Lexington Park.
Help fund this historic project and support the improvement of Lexington Park!
