The Hagerstown Cultural Trail — Attraction in Hagerstown

We used Apple Maps to find the start of the cultural trail. We downloaded an app so we could pay for parking in a lot (there was no other way) and started walking the trail. We saw some black and white pictures of people hung on a fence - nice, but nothing to write home about. Next was a baseball stadium that was closed and locked up tight. Then there were some large abstract murals on the sides of buildings. OK, somewhat interesting.

Walked from there to University Plaza and had a nice lunch at Rhubarb House which is a block away. My favorite stops were the Mural Of Unusual Size and A Butterfly Dreams...
