Description: Painted in honor of Newark's 350th anniversary, the Edgar Allen Poe mural gives tribute to Newark's culture by illustrating a long standing Newark rumor.

Deer Park highlights this story with the raven display inside the tavern. Now this mural shares that long told tale with residents and visitors alike.
