| Description | Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Ashland’s business district is the backdrop for a fascinating stroll through the city’s colorful history as depicted in 20 large murals created by northern Wisconsin artists Kelly Meredith and Sue Prentice Martinsen.
Highlighting various eras and landmarks from Ashland’s rich history, the vibrant murals depict subjects ranging from the city’s lumberjacks and military veterans to its railroads, storefronts and recently demolished ore dock. Thanks to the efforts of these two talented artists and the support of the entire community, in 2005 Ashland achieved the distinction of “Historic Mural Capital of Wisconsin,” making the city a year-round public art destination.
