The Artist Alley Revamp Project, initiated by Jayne McGowan in 2012, transformed an alley under the bridge at the intersection of N 6th Ave and Washington Ave into a vibrant showcase of commissioned artwork. This innovative initiative aims to reduce vandalism and illegal tagging while increasing foot traffic to appreciate the talents of local artists, who create diverse works ranging from political pieces to pop culture references.

Collaborating with willing business owners and various artists, the project features artworks displayed in designated spaces, fostering a sense of community among creators. This lively alley has become a platform for artistic expression and connection, as artists like Cody Swaggerty and Shane Sandberg share their visions and inspire passersby to engage with the local art scene.
