Old Shed

Ness City, KS | Ness County

You might call the old shed the county event calendar. For more than 60 years it's been a tradition to paint announcements of activities, the birth of a child, high school graduation, remembrances of a loved one, community events, or a soldier's homecoming on this graffiti-covered Quonset. Some think that the layers of paint applied over the years are the only thing keeping the metal shed upright! It's a surprising piece of art on the prairie, but it's one that will warm your heart.
