Scott Hagan, the one-and-only bicentennial barn painter,
puts the finishing touches on the Perry County barn. |
The Perry County Bicentennial Barn is located 1 mile west of
Somerset, Ohio on US RT 22. The Perry County Historical Society in
cooperation with the Ohio
Bicentennial Commission dedicated the Perry County Barn on Friday,
April 28, 2000. The barn, owned by the Holland family, is the 35th
barn in Ohio to be painted by the Bicentennial Commission. The
Bicentennial Commission has plans to paint a barn in each of Ohio's 88
Counties.
