Downtown Murals

The Downtown Action Committee (DAC) was formed in 1993 with the goal of revitalizing the downtown and strengthening partnerships.  One of DAC's accomplishments was the Downtown Mural Project consisting of 19 murals.  We invite you to stroll through downtown and explore our rich historical past. To plan your own tour or see pictures of some of the murals, check out the map of mural locations.
