&lLEGACY, established in 2000, is the outcome of a Young Leaders Forum called
by Forward Quest to develop emerging community leaders in the region.
LEGACY empowersits members with information and perspective on timely
community issues, and fosters leadership skills and personal relationships
through monthly meetings, direct community involvement, and public
initiatives.t;/p>
Since 2002, LEGACY has been creating one of the largest permanent displays of
public art in the region—the Roebling Murals. Using the Covington floodwall as
a canvas, Legacy commissioned internationally renowned artist Robert Dafford
to paint a series of 17 murals that depict the rich history of Covington, Northern
Kentucky and the Suspension Bridge.
The Roebling Murals have dramatically enhanced a major entryway into
Covington. In addition to its aesthetic and educational benefits to the
community at large, the murals encourage tourism and economic returns for
the City. LEGACY funded this project through private and public donations.
