Emporia Main Street is inviting the community to celebrate downtown’s interactive murals with the Main Street Mural Crawl. The murals, located in four places along the retail corridor along Commercial Street, offer the public a place for a fun photo opportunity while encouraging a walk downtown. “Emporia Main Street has been wanting to bring more public art work to downtown for a while,” said Community Development Coordinator Jessica Buchholz. “We know that public art increases pedestrian traffic, which then results in an increase of potential consumers in our retail corridor.”
