Special thanks to MaryElizabeth Styka, the creator of the Instagram page Murals in Erie Pa. She helped us identify locations of Erie's public art and generously shared her photos for this project. Most pictures below were taken by her. We very much appreciate her help! Like her Instagram page here.
Thank you also to Coldwell Banker real estate agent Catherine Fox! Catherine, a mom and an award-winning agent, was so kind to sponsor our Erie mural guide!
