Background: In spring 2025, the Iron Horse Arts District shared its vision to install vibrant crosswalk murals in downtown Holdrege. After a public call for designs with the theme “Feathered Crossings” (think birds and nature) and a competitive review process by the District’s Public Art Committee, a mural concept by Alma artist Hallie Snyder was selected for the project. It will be painted directly on the crosswalks as a part of a community art initiative. The murals will be installed at the northern and southern crosswalks on 5th & East Avenues, with painting led by Nancy Wiese, local artist, Holdrege High School art teacher, and Iron Horse Arts District board member.
