Murals abound in Gulf County! Are you ready to find them all? Four murals are scattered throughout Gulf County so that you can find them and strike a pose.
The murals are a new project that Gulf County, Florida, introduced to get some artwork out into the natural areas where visitors and locals alike would see them and take a photo. Gulf County worked with local artist Sara Griffins from Enjoy Art By Sara to create each mural. Use this blog as a tool for your next trip to Gulf County so that you can find them all!
