About

🎨 Help Bring Public Art to Life in Germantown! 🎨

The City of Germantown Public Art Program is launching Phase I of the Wolf River Cultural Greenway, an exciting initiative to bring vibrant public art into the Greenway trail system.

This phase features large-scale murals at the Riverwood Pedestrian Tunnel and new sculpture pads for a future rotating exhibition. Together, these elements will transform the Germantown Greenway into a colorful, creative community space.

Join us for volunteer paint days and help turn this vision into reality! For more information, visit our website.

Funding is provided in part by the Tennessee Arts Commission and the Germantown Public Art Fund.
