What is the AR:T PODCAST BEETLE?
HEAR THE ART
SEE THE RADIO
In recognition of Loughery’s global contributions, Dr. Karl Shutz, the Architect of the famous Chemainus Mural Town, bequeathed his beloved Volkwagon Beetle to her.
The colourful iconic car serves as a meaningful legacy intended for Loughery to continue Karl’s Global Mural Art legacy in community mural tourism.
Just days before his passing, Karl personally passed on the car and some lucky crystals to Loughery as a token of their cherished friendship and mentorship.
The ART BEETLE continues to bring happiness to people, and with the addition of the Sunflower and AR:T ROUTE RADIO logos, it now boasts a complete and eye-catching appearance.
Keep an eye out for the ART BEETLE in your community or on the digital highways!

History
The visionary and Chemainus Mural Program Architect Dr. Karl Schutz created the Arts Beetle.
The vision and passion for mural projects around the globe are legendary globally. Karl is the mural king and I was blessed to ride around in this car with Karl on one of our many community visionary road trips. I was moved to be gifted this car, by Karl and I will forever help keep the story of the mural magic maestro. I will keep mural trucking and will always look for the WOW FACTOR. I am a proud graduate of the University of Global Murals, teacher Dr. Karl Schutz.
