Vermont Art Exhibit Honors Volunteer Firefighters

"It's easy to forget about the fire department - until you need it.

"That's why Beverly Petrelis, a member of the Bennington Historical Society, created a display in December in the Corridor Art Gallery of Southwestern Vermont Medical Center to honor volunteer firefighters.

"'The main thing for this display is to honor these people, because they've been serving this community since 1850,' Petrelis said. 'We've always had a volunteer fire department all those years in Bennington.'

"Petrelis created the display on behalf of the historical society."

A recent article in the Bennington Banner reported on this art display in the Southwestern Vermont Medical Center, Bennington, VT.
