The artistry of union craftsmanship was on full display in New York in early 2024. Members of Local 83 performed stunning copper work at the New York State Capitol in Albany, with help from Local 40 (Connecticut), Local 17 (Boston) and Local 63 (Western Mass.). The approximately six tons of copper were installed by Local 83 members Mike Desourdy, Joshua Vadnais, Andrew Bell, Vernon Howe, Kenny O’Loughlin, Ed Schillinger, Jr., Superintendent Tony Brancati and Aaron Hebert, as well as Local 40’s Dennis Rodrigues, Local 17’s Keith Ruza and Local 63’s Stephen Bovenzi.
