Mural unique to Nocona’s heritage going up in downtown
Sunset artists Roger Whitaker and his wife, Rachel, continue to work on a new mural going up in downtown Nocona. Located on the south wall of the Gibbs Drug Store, the mural will represent Comanche Chief Peta Nokoni, for whom Nocona is named. Building owners Rusty and Carolyn Fenoglio along with several other business owners and residents sponsored the commission and worked closely with Tales ‘N’ Trails Museum to get the historical background, including verifying the correct name spelling.
