Warm Springs Post Office Mural

The post office in Warm Springs is a small building in a town that exists, essentially, because Roosevelt came here to swim. He arrived in 1924, drawn by natural springs that offered relief from polio, and never really left — renaming the town, building a cottage, dying here in 1945. The mural inside the post office is a New Deal-era federal commission depicting rural Georgia life. The brief doesn't go further than that, and neither should you.
