LEXINGTON’s Hostoric Courthouse

If you walk around Lexington’s old courthouse, you may feel as if you’re being watched. There are ghostly figures in many of the windows—tapestries that represent the ancestors who helped build the foundations of the city and people who were bought and sold in this square, which housed the largest slave auction block west of the Allegheny Mountains.

Marjorie Guyon, a collage artist, got the idea for the tapestries in the fall of 2016 while working in her studio.
