HUNTINGBURG – The Alley Activation Mural is the final component of the Alley Activation Project, funded through the 2021 READI 1.0 grant. This initiative is designed to encourage economic growth and create a vibrant corridor connecting Huntingburg’s historic downtown to the Huntingburg Memorial Gym. Located between Butcher and Barrel and the old Overtime, the mural by artist Kacy Jackson helps turn the alley into a vibrant space that draws in both residents and visitors. Alongside added features like planters, seating areas and decorative lighting, the mural enhances the alley’s overall appeal and functionality.
Jackson is a Kentuckiano who became an internationally recognized artist driven by his passion and dedication. Founder of The Art of Kacy, established in 2017, he has made creative contributions to charitable organizations and public art. From small-scale paintings to large-scale murals, his many styles can be found in nearly every community across the USA. Explore more of his vibrant creations by following ‘The Art of Kacy’ on Instagram and Facebook.
The public is invited to join the city of Huntingburg and artist Kacy Jackson on July 17 at 5:30 p.m. for the unveiling of the new mural in the alley next to 416 E Fourth St. Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from Jackson and learn more about the inspiration behind the artwork.
