The Murals of Main Street Zephyrhills

OCEA
Part of a larger mural series, the 7th Street Mural will be one of many more to come! Main Street seeks to work with artists to bring excitement to quiet areas around downtown. The 7th Street Mural was completed by lead artist, Jonathan Sierra and assistant artist, Fonz Eljaiek. The mural centers around the idea that water is restorative and connects us back to the life that it has had contact with while using color to connect our audience to the cool and refreshing feelings of water.

Splash on 5th Mural
#SplashOn5th brings whimsy and interactive art to Zephyrhills’ tiniest park! Duck under the umbrella or embrace your inner fairy and pose with the aqua wings. Be sure to use #SplashOn5th to share your photos with us!

Zephyr Park
On the edge of downtown, you will find a sweet, tree-covered oasis! Zephyr Park has been part of downtown since the town’s inception. Home to a large pond, open fields, playsets and the friendliest ducks around, there is no shortage of family fun. Bring a picnic and find a shady spot under one of the huge Live Oak trees that have stood for more than a century!

Wall of Memories
Three volunteer artists: Barbara Bales Moore, Maria Spoto, and Christi Spoto, painted a mural of Zephyrhills on the Wall of Hynes Discount Aluminum on 5th Avenue. Seeing as how the wall is almost the length of a city block, the finished piece is huge! The amount of work these women put in is amazing. They are hard workers — and often didn't finish painting each day until dark — to get the mural ready.
