Vicksburg Riverfront Murals

Unattractive concrete flood walls protect many river towns from river flooding. After a visit to the flood wall murals in Paducah, Kentucky, a group of Vicksburg, Mississippi, residents championed a similar project in Vicksburg.

Since 2002, the flood walls along the Yazoo River in Vicksburg have served as a canvas for capturing images of history and life in Vicksburg.
