Art in Focus: Murals Among Us

By now, you surely have noticed them.

They’re large, colorful and, until a few weeks ago, didn’t exist at all. They’re Harrisburg’s newest murals.

The 2019 Harrisburg Mural Festival wrapped up last month with 14 new murals adorning public spaces in downtown and Midtown Harrisburg, Allison Hill and a section of the Capital Area Greenbelt.

Sprocket Mural Works brought world-class muralists to Harrisburg for the 10-day festival, which included such events as an artist Q&A, a community paint day and, greatest of all, a huge block party in front of the state Capitol.

But maybe you haven’t seen all of the murals—or would just like to see them all in one place. So, we proudly present the newest kids on the block, stunning works of art that will be with us for decades to come.
