Local Artist and North End resident, Nathan Swain, is currently displaying his art at the New Spin Laundry at 100 Salem Street. This is not the first time that Swain has chosen unusual places for his work. Last year, the artist painted and installed large murals in the “windows” of the old Edison Powerhouse building at the corner of Salem & Prince Streets. He also recently completed a mural on the Assagio Restaurant wall adjacent to St. Leonard Church. Nathan Swain can be contacted at or-nathan@hotmail.com.
