Flagstaff gets Revised Route 66 Stamp
In Oct. 2024, Mural Mice R.E. Wall, Margaret Dewar and newbie Bonnielou Wall travelled to Arizona for a very special project. In, preparation for the 100th Anniversary of Route 66, the Mice added to and refurbished the iconic shield in front of the Flagstaff Visitor Center (aka the Train Station). Regardless of the cones and obsticles on top of the image, hundreds of tourists stopped and took selfies with the art. Once complete; Artists, members of the Flagstaff Convention and Visitors Bureau and Flagstaff City Council member Maranda Sweet got in the picture. Route 66 ran uninterupted from Chicago to Los Angeles between 1926 and 1985. A major part of the road still runs through Flagstaff today.
Summer Projects in 2024
Mural 1; Loyal Order of Moose mural
The Mural Mice just concluded work for the Lane Arts Council Artist Residency Program
leading a month long mural painting course at the Academy of Arts and Academics (A3)
in Springfield Oregon. The mural was designed by MM artists.
High School art students painted the 80’ modular mural in the classroom.
Their work was installed on the Moose Lodge 1726 at the end of June 2024. The mayor of Springfield Sean VanGordon declared it,
"..a great contribution to the Springfield public art collection!"
Mural 2; 'Earthly Reverance" Every living thing is our relation mural
This mural is currently in motion at Washington Park. It celebrates the biodiversity of the Eugene area. In the center, children care for the Earth by planting trees and native plants. Ideas for the design were contributed by students from Adams Elementary, César Chávez Elementary, 4J Natives Program, Boys & Girls Club of Emerald Valley, and Eugene Arte Latino. A project of Friendly Area Neighbors Equity Action Team, with support from City of Eugene, Lane County Cultural Coalition, Oregon Cultural Trust, and FAN neighbors.
Mural 3; Irving community Mural Project at Irving Grange #377
The mural is currently in motion at 1011 Irvington Dr. in Santa Clara until late August. It began with a feedback process in the Spring and kicked off with a community paint party in early July. Over two dozen people suffered under the brutal Summer heat as artist Maggie Dewar guided them in a paint-by-number style painting process. If you or your group would like to be

The Next Adventure Mural at Thomas School
In the Winter of 2019, Thomas Elementary School Principle Ginni Biggs and Viola Award winning art teacher Kathy Marron embarked on the second phase of an ongoing mural project at their school. This time, they selected a Creative Council of students to develop the content of the mural. The Council was made up of 11 students from first to fifth grades. Their job was to visualize, design, and work out the problems related to the conceptual designs. They would then allow the rest of the school to democratically elect from three proposed designs. Artists from Mural Mice Universal would then lead over 400 students through the painting process. The rest of the story is history in the making. Read More
