‘Together We Create’ is officially bringing color, creativity, and community to life along the Cultural Trail 🎨✨

We’re proud to showcase the incredible work of 10 talented artists who each transformed their own section of the wall into something truly unique. From bold designs to meaningful storytelling, this project reflects the diversity, energy, and creativity that make so special.

Take a walk along the Cultural Trail and experience each piece up close—you’ll see firsthand how art has the power to connect, inspire, and transform spaces.

What a day in ☀️🎶🎨

Hagerfest brought the community together for a beautiful celebration filled with families, friends, and visitors enjoying public art, live music, and activities all across the Cultural Trail. From murals in progress to performances, vendors, and hands-on experiences—there was creativity around every corner.

We were also proud to host the National Mural Awards, welcoming incredible artists from across the country and celebrating the power of public art right here in our Arts & Entertainment District.
