If a picture is worth a thousand words, a mural is a novel—and you can find a small library of them all over the Northern Wilds.
Murals are different from traditional paintings not just in size, structure, and technique, but also in how they impact the community. They are free to view and enjoy by both residents and visitors, and they reflect the identity of the areas they inhabit. They often depict local history and legends or celebrate natural beauty, becoming beloved landmarks that encourage people to consider and connect.
Shown here are only a few of the many murals that can be found throughout the Northland, with more being created by skilled local artists and their supportive communities every year.
