Description
I was at the Strand Center for the Arts on Brinkerhoff Street around 7:30 p.m. on Friday for a quick post-event photo, and I realized my wall art wasn't in the back seat anymore. It's a framed piece, about 18 by 24 inches, with a soft blue background and a gold pattern, and it's the only thing I kept from my late grandmother. I retraced my steps from Market Street to the waterfront by Lake Champlain, but I didn't find it. I’m hoping a neighbor or passerby found it and tucked it somewhere safe. If you found a framed wall art matching a blue-and-gold motif, please help.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
