Multitudes of murals: Stories from the walls of four public art projects in Flagstaff

Every day in Flagstaff, neon signs illuminate in the daylight, men play chess by the pond in Heritage Square and Michelangelo’s statue of David stands tall in downtown. Flagstaff is a city of murals. Stories filled with history, fantasy and emotion adorn the walls that locals and tourists pass by each day and engrain themselves into Flagstaff’s identity. But within the brush strokes of each mural is another story, one of the artists and their journey in painting the city.
