BFF Omaha (www.bffomaha.org), along with the Benson BID and Benson Creative District, is unveiling new banners along Maple St. and within the heart of Benson. 32 banners will feature original work from 16 local artists, selected from a juried submission process over the winter. 90+ artists submitted 160 designs, making the decision a tough one.

The new Benson banners will feature art by: Anthony T. Pena, Bart Vargas, Bekah Jerde, Brooke Carpenter, C+C Mini Factory, Danielle Easdale, Eduardo Gardea, Jared Spence + Bill Sitzman, Jenna Johnson, Kaitlin Kratkyn, Kendra Limon, Lx, Maggie Costello, Nash Bellows, Reagan D.
