Christmas Magic Turns Broken Window Into Christmas Postcard in Downtown Cobourg

In Business, Local

A downtown business has found a way to keep the spirit alive after their front window was broken recently.

The front window of Farren Associates was broken recently and it looks like a replacement glass won’t be ready until possibly after Christmas.

Tony Farren always has a Christmas display in the front window of the store and wanted to keep the tradition going.

Artist Lindsay Allison Cox from Hastings comes into the picture at this point.

Allison Cox spent the last few days creating a interactive mural of two candy canes in a Christmas setting for people who are walking by and would like to have a Christmas photo taken in downtown Cobourg.

“We wanted to spruce it up for Christmas and hoping people will stop by and take photos,” said Tony Farren.
