Cheyenne is working to beautify its downtown. The Cheyenne Mural Project is modeled on the Laramie Mural Project. Work is set to start in August and be completed in October.
“We’re really excited and thrilled to be able to introduce more arts into our community, and create some long-term community investment in the downtown,” says Cheyenne DDA/Main Street director Amy Surdam.
The project aims to complete two murals this year, with many more in the future.
“The vision is that we create a sense of place and a place to be through art. We’d love to inspire the community members to come and take a look at our downtown in a different way,” Surdam says.
The murals will be located in the alley between Capitol and Central Avenues, as well as 16th and 17th Streets.
