Riverfront Murals

020
   Thirty two murals by artist Robert Dafford depict important events in Vicksburg’s history. They’re painted along the floodwall on Levee Street. Each mural has a brass plaque explaining the event depicted. The Children’s Art Park, which has mosaic artwork made by kids, splash fountains, and a playground is located across the street.

  A sidewalk runs the length of the wall. Most of the signs are at the edge of the walk and easy to see.

  A gravel lot is located at the north end of the wall. It’s large enough for RVs but the roads leading down to Levee Street from the main part of town are very steep so you may not want to attempt it. Murals
