Shelley's Deli unveils farm-themed murals
WEST CORNERS, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – A deli in West Corners has attracted lots of attention recently for its new, vibrant murals, and wants the public to take their photos in front of them.
Shelley's Deli is a restaurant style deli, and market in West Corners. As of recently, the side of the building features a farm-style mural of a pig, a cow, a chicken, and a barn, with the name 'Shelley's.'
The owner, Mike Shelley says his tattoo artist painted it in just 3 days. He also created two murals inside the building, one that says Shelley's and the other is a sunny landscape painted from the perspective of looking outside the barn doors.
Shelley says he's only heard good things about the murals, and is challenging his customers to take selfies with them.
'It started with the mural on the outside. Got such huge feedback from everybody loving it. And now, it's like impossible to drive by this place without smiling. And so, we continued on the mural on the inside, and I just thought it'd be a great idea to try to get people to just take their picture in front of the murals, and eventually fill my walls with the community photos, as far as a photo collage mural,' Shelley said.
Shelley plans to print out all of the photos taken in front of the murals, and create another mural using only those printed photos. If you post the photo online, use the hashtag Shelleysmob.
Shelley's Deli is open Monday through Saturday from 7 to 6 p.m. and 7 to 1 on Saturdays.

Waves of Pride among many stories shared in Holland
HOLLAND, Mich. (WOOD) — Kate Leighton-Colburn sees stories everywhere she looks. Her job is to help catalogue and preserve them for the Holland Museum. 'Very grateful to be part of this community, working in this community … that I have the opportunity to share the stories of this community,' she said. 'I love stories. I've always loved stories. I think there's always more to do, explore, more to tell.' Just like everyone, Leighton-Colburn has her own story, part of which is represented in museum's Waves of Pride exhibit. On display through the end of June, it describes the history of the LGBTQ+ community in Holland and of local advocacy organization Out On the Lakeshore. ''Holding hands on Eighth Street,'' Leighton-Colburn said, pointing to the title of one of the pieces in the exhibit. 'I love that she chose that because we always talked about when we can hold hands on 8th Street and feel safe and comfortable, we'd feel like we made it.' Waves of Pride: Holland Museum exhibit tells story of LGBTQ community She said she and her wife Marley have seen a change in their community. 'I would've been very afraid to do an interview like this, even just 10 years ago. I feel less afraid now,' Leighton-Colburn said. 'I definitely feel surrounded by love and community.' But, she said, she knows she won't feel that love from everyone. 'There's still a lot of work to do. There's still people who aren't cool with it,' she said. 'But I just try to live my life in a way that both brings me joy and brings others joy, hopefully.' List: Pride Month events in West Michigan 2025 She hopes to teach that perspective to her son Tate. 'I hope that I can teach him to be kind, to know what it means to give joy to others,' she said. 'Empathy, sympathy, love, community, always having an open door.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
