A Bridgeport mail carrier is just one of many workers being honored for their service during the pandemic thanks to a new ad campaign.

The nonprofit group Bridgeport Art Trail celebrates artists and the amazing work they do bringing the aesthetic wonders of the world into everyday life. The group's ad campaign features portraits on window posters as well as banners that help remind everyone how lucky we are to have so many front-line heroes hard at work in the community.

Mail carrier Kason Santos is one of the recipients of the gratitude shown by the ad campaign.

The downtown special services district also thanks their district ambassadors for their work downtown. They offered to collaborate on expanding the poster program concept into their annual light to pole banner beautification program.
