Terry Buckendorf
Featured Works
Columbus Cafe
Terry Buckendorf is a Spokane-based muralist. His only work in the city of Davis is the Columbus Cafe mural on the intersection of 2nd and F street which he painted in 1978, and some of his other work can be found in Spokane. Since then, his mural has been restored twice both in 1989 and 2013 due to extensive water damage. According to Ken Kemmerling, the guy lighting the cigarette is Terry Buckendorf himself. One of the women in the mural is Gloria Seaborg, who was Terry’s partner at the time. Terry & Gloria lived at 412 Second Street with fellow artists Steve Kaltenbach, Paul Biehler, and Julie Partansky—who is pictured peering out of a window on the right side of the mural—until March 1, 1976.
