Churches of the Frescoes

The Churches of the Frescoes are a renowned West Jefferson NC Attraction and a place that many visitors to the Blue Ridge Parkway like to take a moment to stop. Famed mural artist Ben Long painted enormous fresco paintings in two local areas, historic Episcopal churches and visitors can tour each and see the fabulous result of his long, hard work. Fresco painting is a distinct type of painting that takes long hours and many layers. Long used the inside walls of St. Mary's Episcopal Church in West Jefferson and the Holy Trinity Episcopal Church in Glendale Springs to paint several scenes from the Bible.
