New Mural Shows “Life Is Good”
July 27, 2023
• Brothers and Co-Founders of Life is Good, Bert and John Jacobs, are featured in the From Needham to the World mural on Chapel Street.
Little towns can have a big impact. While one can argue that Needham has long since shed its small-town roots in favor of becoming a bustling suburb, most residents still say ‘Boston’, when asked where they live when they are abroad. Well, a series of mural installations by the Needham Community Revitalization Trust Fund (NCRTF) may change that. Highlighting notable people who call Needham home, and those who made Needham what it is today, the NCRTF recently unveiled the latest in that series. Chances are, you are familiar with the honorees, and quite possibly have already invited them into your home!
