Mural society’s MuralFest, 5Kcreate colorful weekend in Alva
John Wayne, a blue lady and the outdoors have something in common: Pictures of all three are now painted on the sides of buildings in Alva.
Over the weekend, mural artists painted three new murals around Alva as part of the Alva Mural Society’s MuralFest.
The artists – Kelly and Ty Tompkins, Tox Murillo and Jake Beeson – painted the sides of downtown buildings while local residents watched. Onlookers also listened to music and ate food.
Local runners participated in the 5K “Fun Run,” which gave participants a scenic view of murals around the area.
If you weren’t able to attend the MuralFest, take a look at what you missed.
