Mural #1  “Perfil Ancestral” This piece was designed in honor of the local indigenous Ute tribe.  The Ute people occupied and developed these lands. It is an image that projects mysticism and the relationship and connection with nature.

Mural #2 “Mano Trabajadora” Inspired by all those people who, for different reasons, left their home country to work in the urban development of this territory. It relays the feelings of hope and opportunity.

Mural #3 “La Unión” is the train that guided transportation, development, and the economy of the area. It is a very important landmark of Ogden and of the beginning of interstate travel in the United States. The railroad represents a very big challenge that was achieved with clear goals and consistency.

Mural #4 “Mrs. Rodeo” accentuates the local culture and customs of the town. Honoring women, the rodeo, simplicity and sharing.

Mural #5 “Joe McQueen” was designed in homage of this great, inspiring human being. He was a professional musician who became a very special part of this community. The spirit and memories of Joe are treasured by everyone who met him.
