We love to support the arts, and as new murals and sculptures pop up around campus and town, we like to share new experiences and photo opportunities for you and your student.
Grab your phone (or camera) and snap some selfies at some new iconic spots. And don’t forget to tag us at #uwstoutpics.
Menomonie murals include the nearly 400-square-foot painting depicting art through the ages on Applied Arts Building’s east loading dock wall. Art lovers can also view:
- The C&J's Candy Store mural, on the corner of Main and Fourth Street E. Viewers can pretend to sip from a giant strawberry shake.
- Ted's Pizza mural, in the alley behind the pizza shop, off of Third Street E between Main and Wilson Avenue.
- The Harry Miller motorcycle mural and the Anderson Dry Cleaning sign are on the Keane building, on the corner of Main and Third Street E.
- The Welcome to Menomonie mural features the Clock Tower within the letter M, near the corner of Main and Seventh Street E.
The Menomonie Sculpture Tour, presented by Explore Menomonie, features six sculptures throughout the city. Explore Menomonie worked with the Sculpture Tour of Eau Claire, part of the largest sculpture tour in the nation, to secure the artwork. The sculptures are:
- “Viewfinder”: outside of UW-Stout's Applied Arts Building
- “Bear”: Russell J. Rassbach Museum for the Dunn County Historical Society
- “Eggcited”: Wilson Park
- “Harp”: Mabel Tainter Center for the Arts
- “Monarchy”: Wakanda Park
- “Pouncing Fox”: Sanna Park

The natural beauty of the Menomonie area also offers hidden gems, even in winter, for photo opportunities for family, friends and supporters.
