Kingfisher, OK Murals
Vol 12, Iss 21 Kingfisher, Oklahoma - These Kingfisher Murals were found on the Main Street of Kingfisher, Oklahoma.
Main & Broadway, NE Corner -- If you drive north on Main Street through Kingfisher, Oklahoma, you can get a good view of the NE Corner of Main Street & Broadway Avenue Mural. It depicts a covered wagon a few cowboys on horses and is painted on top of the side of the third building on the east side of the street from the corner of Broadway Avenue and Main Street.
If you keep going north on Main Street to Miles Avenue, you can view the NE Corner of Main Street & Miles Avenue. They have incorporated a few real-life fruitless pear trees along side and a few painted trees in the background. Check out the real stairs that seem to go up to the painted blue sky & clouds.
