You will find their faces are among physical elements which represent La Crosse: the bluffs, Mississippi River, a riverboat, and other elements of nature.

The goal of this mural was to inspire more people to be a part of and enjoy the art community. The mural was funded by the city, a National Endowment of the Arts grant, and private donations.
