Discover Local Art in the Lake Chelan Valley

The murals and sculptures scattered throughout Chelan and Manson are a celebration of this region's beauty, history and character. The mural collection began as a special project of the Lake Chelan Chamber of Commerce, inspired by past Boards of Directors to beautify the valley while honoring its agricultural roots and rich heritage

Explore the streets of Chelan and Manson to discover it all for yourself. Keep an eye out for a hidden detail in the murals: most include an apple somewhere in the scene. Can you find them all?
