                                               MURALS
                                             It's been a big year for local artists Ruby Hahn and Elyssa Leininger with their gorgeous
                                           new mural projects and work showcased on downtown traffic signal boxes. Ruby’s
                                         artwork is featured in the N. 29th Street alley with her first large-scale mural, completed in
                                       summer of 2021, along with a piece on the traffic signal box at the corner of N. 27th St. and
                                      Montana Avenue. Elyssa’s work is found in numerous locations around downtown; Two large
                                     and impactful murals that adorn both the 6th Street and 13th Street Underpasses, two smaller
murals located in the alley behind Dickey's BBQ and The Marble Table on Montana Avenue, and a piece on a traffic signal box
outside of Jake's Downtown on 1st Avenue N. and N. 27th St.
Beyond beautification of the downtown community, public art offers attractive destinations, creates usable spaces for the
community, all while contributing to the downtown’s overall public safety. Please find more information, beautiful photos, and
