Found on the side of the Mitchell building (262 E Mountain Street) this multi-paneled mural celebrates all things musical. Legends Duke Ellington and Ella Fitzherald are there, along with Carlos Santana, Elton John, Johnny Cash and the Beatles (individually). Local favorites like Liz Barnez and Mark Sloniker adorn the mural as well. If you aren't into musicians, think about pop culture and see if you can find Marilyn Monroe or Albert Einstein. Don't miss the animals...cats, dog and parrot. The mural is in an alley and is two stories tall. Definitely a can't miss. Spend some time checking out who's who and then sit at the piano in the doorway across the hall and make some music of your own.
