ART ALONG THE AVENUE

Downtown Altoona buildings are full of history, art, and imagination. The art on the buildings are done by local artist. These artists volunteer their time and talent to our community. Once a month one artist in our area is recognized in our public library.

The nutcracker painting is on the side of an old building that use to be a nut shop. On the bottom is says, INTOWN ALTOONA, NUTS TO YOU! The artist was not only talented but had a great sense of humor. The second painting is a replica of a train. The symbol of Altoona.
